MP3 Streaming
MP3 Streaming allows you to instantly listen to music as it comes across the Internet, without storing it on your hard drive. In order to use the streaming MP3 feature, you'll need a fast Internet connection. It's best suited for those listeners who have a 56K modem or better. To use the Streaming MP3 feature, simply click on the Stream MP3 link next to the song of your choice. If you're having trouble with this feature, go to the FAQ section on the Software page.

RealAudio Streaming
RealAudio Streaming is only slightly different than the streaming MP3's. It doesn't require you to save the file to your hard drive, but you must have RealPlayer or RealJukebox in order to hear it. To begin listening to RealAudio Streams, click on the RealAudio link next to the song of your choice.
Note: If you're having trouble with your MP3 player, see our FAQ section on the Software page. (more info)
