Hi!
I'm not a Victor Reader Stream user and I don't use my iPhone much for
Internet radio however I believe I use a far better solution than a
Victor Reader Stream will ever be and an iPhone is part of this - or
indeed an Android phone if you'd prefer -, the phone acts as the remote
control for my Sangean Internet radios and tuners here.
Yes, variations of these are available in America.
For Australia and Europe Sangean offer Multi Band multi function
Internet radios and - in Australia at least - there are four models to
choose from, two portable units, a tabletop music system and a Hi-Fi
tuner so choose the one that reflects your needs.
In The U.S., Sangean have the WRF28 or WRF28, as far as I know those two
units are battery portable sets.
The App for Android/iPhone is very easy to use and even mirrors the
display of the radio.
All Sangean models now come with Spotify Connect and the App itself has
been updated so the user can stream an iTunes library from the phone
itself to the radio.
Naturally there are a lot more details I could give about these radios
and their setups and I really should do another Podcast on the whole
subject, I did one 3 years ago I think it was but since then the whole
thing has gone ahead in leaps and bounds.

Hi Guys,
Seeing that many of you appear to be VRS users.
I recently considered buying one rather than another mainstream Internet
radio as a preference to listening to streaming radio stations on my I
phone.
I was initially told the internet radio on the VRS was simple to use and had
35 pre sets.
A couple of folk then said stick with your I phone for internet radio
Peoples views would be appreciated.
My main criteria is stable streaming, as an example my I phone cuts out much
more often than my static Roberts internet radio.
Where do we think the technology in the VRS sits
Thanks
Colin
