This sounds a good internet stream, I like their 24k AAC+ stream.

I don't usually touch streams below 64k or 48k aac. But I'm impressed with the quality of this stream. Not perfect, but considering the low bitrate, pretty damn good.  |

24k aac+ is a very good compromise for mobile. I've transferred my 24k MP3 to aac+ and in my car sounds good and doesn't buffer. I can tell the difference but it's acceptable in those circumstances.  _________________ Atlantic Oldies 2NG

Is there any any chance to get 2NG on Virtual-Radio:
http://www.vradio.org/
BigL, R. Caroline and GlamFM are already there
(with Virtual-Radio platform you can listen via your W-LAN connection on your mobile-phone without any costs - your mobile phone becomes a little WiFi-radio that way) _________________

I looked at it, you have to make a donation (which I'm not too averse to doing but it appears still not guaranteed).
However, according to their info my streams don't fit their requirements. They want 24k MP3 or 128k MP3. I'm 96k to keep costs down and my 24k is now AAC+ as that sounds way better. _________________ Atlantic Oldies 2NG

Thank-you very much for all your efforts 1
The Virtual stream is not bad at all - I plug speakers into my mobile (instead of the earphones) and to me it sounds like FM. I mostly listen to BigL, GlamFM and Caroline via Virtual and using my mobile as a Wifi is very comfortable and when I am somewhere else I always have my 'radio' with me - I only need their W-LAN access
The only disadvantage is you can't charge and attach the speakers at the same time - battery is empty after ~ 8 hours _________________
