    Hi and welcome to MGs. :)

    To be honest, I am not sure if any of them support dial-up. I do know Pandora (which is what I use) does not.

    To get a definite answer, you should post in the Network or Software Forum (hmm...not sure which this would fall under).

    Welcome to MG, Tony Tiger, you have come to the right place!! I know of one person who is on dial-up that does listen to music, his name is mugrb, so keep an eye out for him, and I will tell him you are interested, so he can post tomorrow maybe how he does it..

    I, on the other hand, altho on dial-up too, do not . Mugrb is really into that , so I will see to it he answers your question... ;)

    Welcome aboard! :-D

    So what did you find that works besides the Bluegrass.;):guitar I used to save my streaming radio and I believe it was WinAmp. What format is it coming down in?

    BTW, welcome aboard.

    EDIT: Streamripper is good for MP3s

    I'm just a wind up merchant, TeeCee. The ladies at MGs are a very special group. I like you all a lot. Great humour and clever to go with it.

    With all the Tony the Tiger pics, I thought it appropriate to point out that the original voice of Tony the Tiger was Thurl Ravenscroft. He also sings the Christmas song "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch."

    Thank you, Paxton007, that is some info I didn't know, but now that you mention it, it does sound familiar.... ;) Now, that song is buzzing thru my mind!!!! I can just see that grinch, hear the song, and then, Tony the Tiger with "They'r Great!":-D Yup, sure is interesting.... ;)
