Listening to Internet radio stations
Internet radio is an audio broadcasting service
transmitted via the Internet. There are a large number of
Internet radio stations broadcasting a variety of services
from every corner of the world. Some are hosted,
managed, and broadcast by private individuals while
others are by the corresponding traditional terrestrial
radio stations or radio networks. Whereas terrestrial, or
OTA (over-the-air), radio stations are geographically
restricted on the range of ra
dio waves broadcast from a
transmitter through the air, Inter net radio stations are
accessible from anywher e in the world, as long as there
is a connection to the Internet, as services are not
transmitted through the air but are delivered over the
World Wide Web. On this receiver you can select Internet
radio stations by genre as well as by region.
Depending on the Internet line conditions, the sound
may not be smooth when playing Internet radio.
