How do YOU listen to AM?

[Bmithra]

PC with XP using winamp, pre aol version, with Cambridge Soundworks PC speakers. Six speakers. Can crank it loud enough to hear anywhere in the house, including while showering.

Okay, that, perhaps, is an image we could have done without.

I use Windows Media Player, but on occasion have used itunes. For the show, I will rip with the WMP and convert using itunes. However, Winamp has been used in the past and is good.

I only tap into Aural Moon three or four times a week, and rarely at work, so it's not a big deal to me.

You're using this http://wiki.cdyne.com/wiki/index.php?title=Playing_PLS_Winamp_files_in_Window s_Media to play AM in WMP?

I looked into this a bit more and figured out what Rick meant. The problem with WMP is that it doesn't understand .PLS files, but it can open any of the MP3 AM streams (but not the AACplus). To do it, you have to click on File and then Open URL and add the appropriate URL. This works fine.I tried it under XP SP2 using v10 of the player. This is still more expensive than Real Player or WinAmp, the former being the cheaper of the 2.

I also have Quicktime on my machine for other reasons and tried that. This is cheaper still by 6MB but you give up seeing the artist and track name in the window. AACplus is not supported or at least I couldn't get it to work.

TMI, right?

But actually I do like to have music with me even there and the Treo 650 is very handy for this.
