It's called Live365; address is www.live365.com
The first few times you visit, it lets you go straight into the genres and stations. After some time, it starts asking you to register. Registration is free. If you want "VIP" status - - which gives you no commercials and access to certain stations that are "full" or restricted to VIP only - - got to pay something like $4.95 a month.
Has just about every genre imaginable. My favorite flavor this past week has been Industrial, in particular the station Electric Frontier. I flick from rock, pop, K-pop, J-pop, oldies, country, house, industrial, piano solos, church music, elevator music, - - as the mood hits me. Can set your favorites in a presets list.
You can even listen in one some police scanners. I think Denver, Colorado was the one I listened to the other day out of curiousity.
Not sure if they have downloads.
Check it out if you're missing music from home.
There was a thread a while back about "bbohng jjak" music and other taxi driver old music (Trot, cabaret, etc.) in Korea. Maybe someone could start a station on this Live365 of just this kind of music. |

There are so many stations that one could spend a day or more nonstop flipping through the channels. So, haven't hit those two yet. Gonna go look for them today.
I signed up for a while . .the $4.95 a month VIP signup - - but after a while, decided to be a cheapy and just use the free service! Enjoy it a lot, but dont' use it as frequently as I wish. Still, . . oh, okay . . maybe I'll do another six months of paying . . just to support it! Sort of like supporting your local NPR !
