Hi all,
November Update
It’s now just about 1 month since we launched the new internet radio service. May I thank you all for all your feedback on this. Overall things are now running smoothly and we’re in the comfortable position of just handling the odd station that is missing / adding in new stations / maintaining existing.
Here a summary of new stations and brands in the system over October:
Virgin Radio, FR (France)
Full network added as a brand. Not sure how we missed that one.
Frisk Radio, UK
Full network of stations added. Main channel upgraded to 320K MP3 from 64K AAC.
Polskie Radio, Poland
Due to the never ending efforts of one customer, best quality streams (192K AAC), correct artwork and station names have been resolved. Excellent work Thomasz
MPB Radio, Ireland
Full network added. This is a Netherlands based company taking their chances on the Irish DAB network.
Best Net Radio, USA
