Re: Streaming audio radio

S'all right, Andy. I'd be open to suggestions on a better card as well, although I think it unlikely that I'd be willing to drop a grand on a card even after I'm working. The format itself seems too limited at this time to justify it.

For my own reasons, I prefer to avoid satellite radio, and if I can't get the quality of sound available over net radio to equal that of a decent digital tuner, I won't be interested in pursuing the idea. My system is fairly revealing, and if I have to sacrifice fidelity to any significant degree to go with the net radio idea, I'd rather pass until the fidelity improves. I realize that in order to fairly judge what's possible, a better card will probably be required, but it also seems that a fairly rapid speed of transmission would be required for good fidelity, and drop-outs would drive me nuts.
