Thanks,

I like to listen to Fox Business Network. So I installed a Shoutcast server on my computer at home. It is monitoring Fox Business from my DirecTV receiver. Before I leave the house I just fire up the Shoutcast server and click on the Link I made in the Internet Radio part of the Medai Player! Sweet. Even works on ATT GPRS. I have the encoding at 12 Kbps. I probably could do 8 Kbps. Voice encoding doesn't require much to get the buffering smooth.
