Hi Joe:
My experience was that you couldn't listen to streaming media, but then in a
vibug discussion of the braille plus, I heard Amy indicate that she could
listen to the aph cafe shows. That's why I asked if radio shows could be heard
on the device. I tried opening those shows, but have not been able to listen
to them. I then tried saving them, but no luck either.

Howdy,
From my limited experience the Icon cannot support listening to those music
files nor will it
support streaming radio. Many of these files require the use of the Flash
Player from
Adobe.
