    I hadn't tried it before, but I had to know. Working fine

    Not sure if you can add stations to the station list, though, or if you're limited to the ones they provide in the "SqueezeNetwork." I think when DH streams WBAI, he does it via his computer.

    ETA: just downloaded the new software and firmware, and yes, you can edit the station list.

    maybe I'm missing something but what about surfing Shoutcast for classical, and using a simple free media player like winamp? It's all free, no subscrition or software fees.

    I listen to internet radio, non commerical, non stop. I search for music genre via shoutcast, test a few search results out and voila, music to my taste as much as I want it. I have it set up both on a regular pc with speakers and a decent sound card, and also on another computer with an optical sound cable that goes into the home theatre.

    http://shoutcast.com/ I've found all sorts of cool stuff - the powerdown bulgarian down tempo station; radio paradise, african stuff... the classical search brings up tons of options.

    Finding classical music via the internet is no problem at all.

    I'd rather not run any software or media player off my work computer, not to mention I can't change the sound card in the computer, and I don't want any cables and speakers on my desk for multiple reasons - clutter and sound quality both.

    Like Pandora and probably other similar sites are blocked by my employer?

    shout cast is not file sharing, it's just catalog of internet radio links based on genre.
