Paul do you use internet radio much? I found when trying to use it, it kept dropping out and needing to re-load, I have a very fast NTL cable connection and a pretty fast PC 1.3Mz 512Mb ram which only runs as a email/music server. my PhotoShop and Avid machines are not permanently connect to the internet! Do you get the same problems with dropping data on internet radio?. Are you on NTL? have you noticed the service going down for quite long periods of time recently 30min to a hour? Martyn
