Welcome to 'Transmitting to Earth'. I'm Charssun and I'll be your host. This blog and podcast is a byproduct of VoyagerRadio.com and is intended to provide the most timely information about this Internet radio station. It is also intended to be a fun and accessible electronic journal with commentary focusing on Internet radio, podcasting and webcasting issues and technologies, music, and some of my other interests. I also offer personal perspective about being an Internet radio broadcaster (and podcaster).

Internet Radio Players for Live365 StationsYesterday I announced the release of Radio365, a wonderful Internet radio player that is mp3PRO-capable (which means CD-quality sound), displays a 10-track playlist, and has instant access to iTunes Music Store downloads. The player also displays CD artwork and has a quick link to a CD's listing on Amazon.com, providing two ways of buying music you're listening to on an Internet radio station: download and physical delivery. The player was developed for Live365 listeners and is only available to Mac OS X users.
Today I'll tell you about the Windows side of this equation. The basic player Live365 offers for Windows users is Player365. It has some of the same features of Radio365, such as a playlist display and links to buy the music you're hearing. But unlike Radio365, it doesn't play mp3PRO streams. Another player is available to play mp3PRO streams--to download it you'll need to upgrade to a Preferred Membership with Live365; a free trial is currently available. As you upgrade to a Preferred Membership you'll be presented with the download link for your mp3PRO audio player. Both Mac and Windows players can be downloaded free, and both require a Preferred Membership to hear the CD-quality sound of mp3PRO Internet radio streams on Live365.com. Both of these apps also offer a free trial period, so try them out to hear what your ears have been missing. And I mean it--please try them out. You may be convinced to upgrade to an ad-free Preferred Membership permanently, and by doing so you'll also be helping to keep Internet radio stations like my own transmitting. By the way, if you sign up for a Preferred Membership, please use this link so that I'll get credit for it!
