Live365 Internet Radio

I remember a co-worker telling me about Internet radio 5-6 years ago. And I checked it out. And it was uhh, like uhh, boring radio stations, just like the ones we have in town, except on the Internet. Well, today someone told me about www.live365.com. A collection of Internet radio feeds. I went there, typed in "guitar" and was lambasted with a ton of Internet feeds that feature nothing but slashing, crashing shredding electric guitar music! AMAZING! Where has this been all my life! It's a small pain to set up at first. My collegue was able to listen through his browser (very simple) but that option seems to have disappeared for new users. I had Itunes on my PC so after I made a free account on live365.com I went into "My Account" into my listening options tab and set the feed to MP3 player (I use Itunes), then when I searched and clicked on a station, a .pls (playlist) popped up to download. I chose to open it with Itunes, and the tunes came streamin' down!

This is the greatest thing since sliced bread! Guitar Central is my fav channel so far! I'm gonna hook this up to my stereo at home! AMAZING!!!!

Even though I try to 'keep up with they times' I sometime miss the tech boat once and awhile. I'm glad I heard of this place though. Freakin Incredible! Vai, Satch, Johnson, Dream Theatre, Ynwie! Where does it stop!!
