Any luck with using last.fm?

2007-03-25 Thread Lynn Schneider
Has anyone successfully used www.last.fm to listen to music?  Between 
this site, slacker.com and pandora.com being inaccessible, I am 
really starting to get discouraged.  I am looking for some good 
streaming audio to listen to at work.  For some reason, ACB Radio and 
Live365.com's media streams will not play on my PC at work, although 
the ones at sky.fm and Yahoo will.  I cannot install Winamp or play 
AOL Radio because it requires installation of an app and I do not 
have administrative rights at work, so this will not work either.  I 
am just a little tired of the same ole CDs and audio streams and was 
hoping to find another service I could use.

Thanks for any insights.

There was a post on the Fred's Head Companion regarding this service, search at

http://fredsheadcompanion.blogspot.com/

Meanwhile, I've stumbled onto

http://www.accuradio.com


which has a multitude of channels.  It uses an imbedded player, but 
one that is accessible.  With JAWS 8, I can set the volume, and the 
volume adjusts independently of the volume of EloQuence.

It will indeed be sad if the proposed copyright provisions mandating 
royalties put these guys out of business.  they're only weak in areas 
of world music.
