@deadbeef You are wrong. Logitech has good developers and they don't need to hire better ones. They might need to hire more, though or put back into the project those 60 or 70% they pulled off. It's a question of management priorities, not developers. If you were told by the mgmt that your medic

Ok, some people here just don't seem know what a sensible discussion would look like. Some hints: 1) If you're not able to argue against a valid point, that just don't try to discuss. 2) Insulting people or telling them that they should shut off or that they are whining or that they should just i

Maybe we should see it differently: deadbeef says he still has a failing alarm every day (it takes a lot to still use it then every day). He is the biggest critic of the Radio and the least adopter of workarounds. And still he owns it. And still he participates on this forum. What better proof

I agree with bluegaspode. When I was looking for a internet radio to replace my failing Radioclock, I tried lots of different brands but the only one to deliver the goods (for me) was the SB Radio. All other are much worse imho. -- copperstate --

The problem with using the URls you show is that they only one of a list of URL which is used for load balancing. Without using the originating list you could be hitting BBC server loading issue. Can you play Radio 1 with this URL ? http://bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r1.asx -- bpa
