For your first two questions look at the Shoutcast app, which allows you
to filter stations by bitrate.
Re Pandora, you will only get 128kbps. That is because Pandora.com only
makes the 192kbps streams available to its own web-based player. Pandora
and Logitech have been talking about the issue,
Can the Touch sort by streaming rate? Or is there a list of internet
radio stations that regularly stream at 192Kbps or higher?
Also, if I'm a Pandora subscriber, will the Squeezebox app be using the
192Kbps stream or is it only using the lower bitrate?

Does the Touch display the bitrates?

Vortexbox by default assumes that an external USB drive is being used as
a backup disk and does not mount it as a normal disk. You CAN use an
external drive as your music library, but it takes some linux hacking
to turn off the special stuff that vortexbox scripts do with an
external drive. I've d
I liked last.fm okay, but I haven't listened to it much in the past 1-2
years. For awhile the mixes started sounding a bit too same-y. I like
Pandora, too. Tastes in our house are pretty eclectic, so I especially
like the ease with which it is easy different "stations" in Pandora for
different art
I'll get it figured out...:-)BTW, looking at your public profile, i
see you use last fm. Like? Dislike? I've been using Pandora for
awhile now and like it a lot...

Thanks for the fast response!
I DID switch stations between tracks, and that's when I noticed a
difference.
The PC I'll be using is an older Dell, but it will be strictly
dedicated to my music library.
If the Vortex s/w works better, I have NO problem downloading it &
using it to run the Squ
There's a nice Christmas surprise. Enjoy!
1) The quality of the internet radio station will affect sound quality,
and the most important variable is the probably the bitrate at which the
station streams. This usually doesn't change from track to track, so I
don't know how to explain the sound bei
