Ray, I didn't hear In Touch as it's a no-no for me most of the time anyway. But I gather in a conversation with my best friend afterwards that the solution of users not being able to add stations themselves has neither been addressed or clarified properly. The fact remains you still have to get SoundTalking to add stations, and that's my big beef with this whole project. Also, it's a tagging system, not a TTS-driven solution, so I don't need to say any more about where such projects end up ... just think of a lorry that comes round once a week or fortnight to empty things, and you'll know where I mean!

Subject: [access-uk] Web Radio again - on In Touch


Just heard the guy from TNAUK on In Touch being interviewed about the
web radio.

Confused a little by one thing he said, that someone's web box was
seemingly updated over night to get a local station.  So, is it possible
after all to do this remotely?  Or have I mis-heard this.   bit of the
programme?

Seems though that Wireless for the Blind fund is now interested so many
might stand to get it for free, so we're led to understand.

I must say though that In Touch and those taking part seem to live in
splendid isolation re. comments on this list over the last month or so.
You'd think this is "Thee Solution" to hear them talk on the programme,
but we all know it isn't.  It will be all the more interesting to hear
what RNIB decides.

Cheers,

From Ray
