Question

Have you bought an internet radio? What have you found?Do you use it much? What model did you buy? How good is it? What do you listen to?

Answer 1

Nah i've never bought one

Answer 2

Yes I purchased a radio about six weeks ago. The name of it is the Tangent Quattro. It comes from a Company called Reciva Radio. I bought the radio from the C Crane Company. The radio works with my computer off. The signal comes through my wireless modem as long as it is on. I believe it can be set up for a wired configuration. You can get thousands of stations and there is no additional service fee like satilite radio. I really like the radio. I am not great with technology so I still have some things to learn about it. I still am not sure how to download additional stations from the Reciva Website but I will eventually learn. This particular radio is a little pricey at 350 dollars but there are less expensive models out there. If you really like radio from all over the world in many different catagories I think its a great way to go. Remember its not only a radio its also a computer driven device. It uses Microsoft Software and if you are a little slow with new technology  as I am you will have to climb a learning curve. It is a lot of fun and I am happy that I purchased it.  Best of Luck  Bob   Post Script  Almost forgot I mainly listen to talk radio and International News.

Answer 3

It is a lot of money for something I can still get free.  There are really a ridiculous number of channels.  I get to my destination before I decide which to listen to.

Great sound, but it's not worth the money.

You decide yourself as it's a personal choice.
