Does anyone here listen to internet radio? If so, what services do you listen to?

I've been toying for years with starting a niche station for awhile on Live365, but am not sure if anyone is still listening...?

I am a radio DJ with:

[href]http://radiothetfordonline.t83.net/ [/href]


Radio Thetford was launched in January 2010 after station founder Samuel Ball decided he wanted to give Thetford a new voice. After announcing plans on Facebook, the community was soon on-board with the idea.

On our launch day we were very highly published being featured on BBC Radio Norfolk news bulletins and a live interview, as well as articles in the Thetford and Brandon News, Bury Free Press and EDP. In February, a team of presenters took shape and have remained strong units within the station. We are forging relationships with local businesses and organizations and look to continue these.

Since our launch thousands of people have listened to our programs, and we are going on-wards and upwards to provide a voice for our town.

Use it all the time, have 3 internet radios and umpteen computers in the house.

Of course, I listen to the BBC (and Radio Caroline, 'cos I am old).

French radio is pants. I reckon they only own 3 records between them.

I used to listen to XRM Radio (shoutcast station) all the time, but sadly they shut down a few weeks ago. Now its mostly Pandora until I find a good station.

I like Grooveshark, because I can save the songs I like into a playlist.

DI.fm has a whole load of good quality stations for pretty much any genre. Besides that, I mostly use internet radio to listen in to radio stations around the world that i otherwise wouldn't be able to hear in the uk. dutch stations are really good for trance/dance music (xfm.nl and fresh.fm), while french stations are really good for urban/hip-hop.
