this is still a problem.
Some people don't know like myself for example, how to do all this routing
pc to jaws and back and forth.
Confusing stuff here!
That's why winamp nullsoft and aol have to fix this.
I had to learn from experience and experementing, which still didn't help me
none.
I still can't find any of the stations still.
So yeah this is a big accessability issue.
