    Best Internet Radio?

    Through my Windows Media, I found a great site called Got RadioThey have a Big Band station that has a mixture of the new swing (Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, etc) and the old classics. I'm really enjoying it.

    I've listened to Sirius - the Sinatra channel is good, but doesn't have a lot of the Big Band stuff. Yahoo radio has a good big band channel, but it was always getting interrupted on my computer for some reason.

    Any other good ones out there? I'd love to find some places that have the old radio shows.

    Not an Internet radio station, but available via the internet is BBC Radio 2 especially Malcolm Laycock. You can here his show 'on demand'. I used to listen to it while at work, until the company firewall blocked it.

    Click here to listen and read about Malcolm's radio 2 show.

    I forgot about the BBC radio. I used to listen to that all the time at work. I'll check it out, too. Thanks. (And darn your company's firewall anyway!)

    I listen to Antioch Radio - http://radio.macinmind.com/ I've got the widget and everything. Unfortunately, I like the comedy shows best, but they play while I'm asleep/at work.

    I also subscribe to several podcasts for Old Time Radio Shows. They're free, and you don't have to have an Ipod to get them.

    Any more?
