Don't live365 stations tend to use mp3PRO, which the Squeezebox can't really handle? Anyway: I probably spend about 80% of the time listening to my own music from a NAS drive. Typically I buy a few new CDs at a time, then listen to them over and over until I'm fed up, then go out and buy some more. So, I use the Browse>New Music feature all the time. If I fancy a change, often I'll use random song mix instead - it breaks up the monotony and can help me rediscover music I forgot I had - so it sounds 'new' in some sense too. The other 20% of the time it's a Shoutcast station. I keep its URL on one of my favourites so it's always easy to tune in to. However, a few weeks ago its URL changed, so my favourite stopped working - and I assumed the station was off the air. It wasn't until I browsed the list of available stations to find it again that I realised what had happened. So, it would be nice if the Squeezebox could store the name of the station rather than just the URL, so it would have a chance of retaining the link even if the server moves? Just a thought. -- AndyC_772 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AndyC_772's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10472 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36061 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
