Hello Ed, I do have a US iTunes account and the thought of using it along with Strong VPN has crossed my mind. The only time I use my American account over here is when I need to order books from Nook that I can't get on Amazon, Bookshare or Blio. Take care, Mike On 13,Mar,2014, at 9:22

Since this subject has come up, I'll mention that I recently published an audiobook, in DAISY and MP3, on how to get the content you want, irrespective of the country you're in. Details here. http://mosen.org/index.php/audiobook-imagine-theres-no-countries/ Jonathan Mosen Mosen Consulting

Hi. No, I have not tried using Pandora. I will download the app. Do you know if there is a Wiki or How to to get started? Thanks. Mike On 12,Mar,2014, at 3:44 PM, isaac isaac.heb...@gmail.com wrote: Have you tried using pandora. On Mar 12, 2014, at 9:28 AM, Mike Busboom mbusb...@gmail.com

Hello Christina, I just now checked the Spotify site and I believe that it will work for me. As soon as I opened the page, I was told in German that Spotify was available in Austria. Thank you very much, Mike On 12,Mar,2014, at 4:31 PM, Christina C. blindmaclo...@gmail.com wrote: It's

I wonder if the AOL Radio app is available in the UK. The US version is somewhat usable with voiceover and it's powered by Slacker. CB On 3/13/14 5:45 AM, Mike Busboom wrote: Hi. No, I have not tried using Pandora. I will download the app. Do you know if there is a Wiki or How to to get

I hope that helped and that Spotify will suffice. :) I used to love Pandora but the last time I used it, I could not play any song or album on demand. Maybe they have changed their features though. Pandora does put out some good music and they do have a free subscription. You get audio ads

Hello everyone, Based on some of the discussions about my query, I logged on to pandora.com, only to encounter a very courteously-worded note stating that, due to licensing restrictions, Pandora was not available in my country. I have a strong feeling that this applies to many, if not all, EU

Hi, Check out this app. It has a wide variety of music, some of which is European. Not sure if it is available there, yet is worth a look. http://www.accuradio.com/#!/channel/4e38562b77d9e74636000212/ Pam Francis On Mar 13, 2014, at 1:08 PM, Mike Busboom mbusb...@gmail.com wrote: Hello

Hi Mike, You can get access to iTunes Radio in Europe. You just need an iTunes account in the US store. You have to be slightly careful how you associate your mobile devices with it as you might inadvertently lock yourself out of your primary account but it is doable. You could probably

Hello Everyone, I had a very enjoyable conversation with the folks at Slacker Radio yesterday and am really happy that the app is now accessible. Unfortunately, for me at least, I learned that Slacker Radio is not available here in Central Europe. Had it been, then I would have purchased the

It's been around a year or so since I used Pandora. Did something change? The last time I used it, I could not play music on demand. I could create stations but I could not play a specific song or album, nor could I make playlists. Is Spotify available in Europe? Is that one accessible? I
