Linux radio question

[Richard A. Franklin]

Thanks Leo.

Again, Streamtuner is what I was needing, and what a found right after 
posting that question weeks ago (not that everyone does or should read 
everything in their inboxes).

If you are using RPM's, the Streamtuner and Streamripper (required 
package) RPM's are easily Google-found. Actually, it was the last thing 
I installed and used before dumping SUSE in favor of a Mepis desktop.

Streamripper is installed by default in Mepis, so all I needed to do is 
"apt-get install streamtuner", and I had instant access to hundreds of 
streams.

Like, RadioPower.org progressive talk from the Shoutcast directory. (I 
am now OT). I catch Thom Hartman there, who is a breath of fresh air in 
a world of "2+2=5" reactionary right-wing media propaganda. He is 
probably considered to be liberal,  but I find him to be delightfully 
moderate. Anyway, it beats listening to Imus "grunt" into his microphone.
