Listening to Internet radio
stations
Internet radio is an audio broadcasting service
transmitted via the Internet.
1
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
radio waves broadcast from a transmitter
through the air, Internet radio stations are
accessible from anywhere 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.
