vTuner is quite good. I get vTuner through my Yamaha AVR. However, though vTuner boasts around 11,000 stations the Yamaha filters out over 70% of them. But a very nice service nonetheless. Another service I hope the Slim Devices people will consider is BeSoinc Radio. They currently stream through my vTuner service(via Yamaha server) and both sound quality and variety is excellent. They currently offer 20 stations, all MP3 @ 128k. BeSonic seems to be quite like RadioIO, less 10 stations. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40957 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
