Hi Peter,
Thanks for the tips, I like the one for the BBC stations in particular,
though I fear it will still be a bit more of a slog than it could be.
I bet you are pleased to get the additional time jump options - from what I
remember, I think you were one of the first people to request this and it
certainly speeds up the process of jumping through a recording/audio file.

Hi Jamie and All,
I've also been looking for a comprehensive list of station URL's, but
meanwhile, a couple of tips re Internet Radio:
When you do find a link to a stream you want to use on a website, you
can usually right-click it, then choose "save target as", and the
resulting file should be either a .M3U, PLS or ASX file which you can
rename if you wish and then transfer across to the Pocket.
Also, I particularly wanted to be able to stream BBC national
stations, and the BBC player doesn't work this way, but I did find
ASX files that work on the Pocket, so for example, here is the URL for Radio
4:
http://bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r4.asx
and for other stations, replace r4 with r3, r7 and so-on.
I'm loving this upgrade so far, so many thanks to Plextor.
Best,
Peter
