As bullethead said, the sound quality will really depend on the bit rate that the internet station chooses to use for it's transmissions. Bandwidth costs money so some stations use lower bit rates while others that are more concerned with sound quality will opt for higher bit rates.

But overall, I would not expect the internet feed to sound as good as the FM transmission. At higher bit rates, it can sound pretty darn good and enjoyable but not quite up there with a clean FM signal. But don't be discouraged, it's still worth a try.

I also own the Squeezebox Classic but there are a number of "Internet Radios" that work like (and look more like) typical table radio appliances (instead of high tech computer geek gear).

Which ever route you choose, for best results you will need a decent ALWAYS ON internet connection, not a dial-up connection using your telephone line.

Just for grins, visit Amazon.com and search on "Internet Radio".
