Re: [Swprograms] New Internet Radio to Debut in August at $139US

["Richard Cuff" <rdcuff@xxxxxxxxx>]

The royalty matter seems to have settled down...compromises were made
on both sides, though the issue isn't 100% settled yet.

AFAIK the hubbub applied primarily to streamed music, not spoken-word audio.

Caution:  Windows Media and Real Audio are apparently NOT supported
with the Music Pal.  See http://www.freecom.com/objects/00011377.pdf.

This means you won't be able to hear the BBC, CBC, Australia's ABC,
New Zealand's National Radio or RNZI (live).
