Internet TV and Radio

[Atrocities]

Do any of you listen to free - legal - internet radio and or TV?

I use win amp and listen to club 977 and one that a member here recommended for a Seattle station. I have come to realize that this could possibly become one of the largest untapped cash cows of our modern times. Think about it, for pennies a day you could subscribe, provided such service existed, to comerical free internet radio and TV.

I mean why haven't the big networks jumped on this and taken advantage of the huge untapped resevor of people who would gladly pay a buck to see their favorite TV shows most recent episode comerical free fed to them via streaming video. I know that I would rather download an episode and watch it when I have time ala tivo, but without out all of the commericals that Tivo no longers excludes.

Or while I am working at my PC I would love the ablity to listen to a show while I am working on something, or watch it while I am at my PC.

This market has a huge potential yet viturally no one has taken advantage of it.

Metromegamix.com and radio tempo DANCE AND TECHNO RULEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz

Because cars/buses/RVs/trains/golf carts/etc. don't have internet connections.

They can however use satellite radio, which is gaining popularity and raising eyebrows.

And Satellite radio was one of my early 80's suggestions that were looked upon as: "Who would want that?" and most frustratingly, "It will never work."

This just proves to me that if any one ever asks "Why would any one want that?" PATENT IT IMMEDATELY!!!! History has proven to me that when such a statement is made about an idea or product, it makes lots of money.

My brother has bought a subscription to that baseball TV thing, now he can watch 100's of baseball games, he's a happy camper and the stream speed is good with our cable modem.

personally I don't need stuff like that.

I used to watch a lot of TV, now I only watch it late at night. I am loosing interest in most everything these days. Music, Tv, internet, gaming have all suffored from my lack of interest as of recent, and I am left to feel that my tastes are changing yet I don't know yet what my new tastes are? Odd huh?

I never thought I would see the day that I would be bored with playing games or watching the boob tube.
