Best internet radio anyone?

Alpha Boys’ School Radio.

For all fans of Jamaican Jazz, Reggae, Dub and Ska, this is just the perfect radio station to listen to.

Available on yer actual hi-fi via a station search in the Naim app, and on yer lappy and mobile tings via the Soundgarden app.

Nuff respect.

Earlier I posted about SuperStereo channels, last night SS2 was broadcasting in 16/48 but today it is 16/44.1. I will monitor it.

SuperStereo 3 is down today (26/01/2022) but back the next day.

Love it !! 56 kbps has never sounded so good :+1:

I discovered XWave recently. Fantastic for Post Punk and European independent music ranging from dance to punk and quite a lot in between.

I have discovered quite a lot of music unknown to me here.

I recommend dipping your toes in, you might not find something you like straight away, but something unexpected will come along.

You may be interested in another Internet radio-related topic concerned with some changes to radio aggregators
Bauer Media dropping Internet Radio Aggregator streaming - Streaming Audio - Naim Audio - Community

Further to the above.
The Bauer/PlanetRadio group are indicating their streams will cease working shortly. These appear to include:-
Absolute
Kiss
Magic (the UK station not the French one)
Planet
Hits
Greatest Hits Radio
Scala
JazzFM
Wave 105.

There are around 144 stations/channels listed on their website (including premium and local channels) but is unclear if all will be affected - I expect so. See https://planetradio dot co dot uk/stations/
These stations are only available in the UK.

For the future, there are other stations with similar content and better SQ available.

A thumbs-up for WRTI Jazz. Thanks for the introduction.

On my Naim app with any iPhone 12 this station gives no track/artist info, just the bitrate and buffer size.

The station does stream this info and it is OK via TuneIn on my system.
Is anyone else seeing track info or having the same issue on the Naim App?

Another nice Jazz station
Jazz - Jazz 24/7 GBH (WGBH) (Boston, USA)

Big shame if Planet Rock goes. Although they used to have a High Res stream which went when Bauer bought them.
