I've been enjoying it immensely

Bennser, you're an awful tease....I can't get on.  I keep getting a message that the server is full.  Good for them (bad for me...).

I was using Real Audio, but I got connected through Netscape Radio -- the new incarnation of Spinner, which has the same stations (including WOXY and KCRW), but lost a lot of the best features of the Spinner player (e.g. limitless personal presets and the ability to see what's playing on another station by simply hovering your cursor over the other station -- that was an *awesome* feature).

 Metric and the Tyde are two faves that come to mind.
You might check out www.wnku.org   It's from Northern Kentucky University, not bad but it's an NPR station so it's not music all the time.

I'm biased 'cuz I dj'd on WVKR for 3.5 years.  Ah, the old days.  I hear the studio's just amazing now.  I was Sunday 7 - 9 pm in my prime.  I can't believe you can stream it.  What a dream that would have been; could have made my mates at other schools listen in.
 
 The two to three hour shows will vary greatly based on the dj.  Used to be until about 6:00 p.m. it was classical, jazz, folk, etc.

That article had more than a few inaccuracies in it, which is why I'm guessing it was taken down.
