Free, Higher Resolution Streaming Radio?

I recently discovered the lossless (FLAC or ALAC, I believe) feed from Radio Paradise and enjoy it very much. Do any of you know if this is the only free-of-charge, non subscription example of this type of service or are there more out there? Not really demanding of instant access to particular songs...maybe a little more “narrowing” to specific genres than the typical, eclectic Radio Paradise fare.
A free, high rez Classical feed would be wonderful.

Thanks in advance.

Remember RP hain't totally free, its public.  Throw them a few bucks if you can.  I buy T-shirts and hoodies for xmas gifts and drop them some cash every now and then.

Radiobit.50 webs has a list of high res stations and their respective bit rates.  Really cool site.  Radio.garden has every (almost) radio station in the world shown on a globe.  Ditto on the cool factor.  Have fun, John

I second the recommendation of radiobit.50webs.com . Really interesting site!  And I'd point out that for casual listening an mp3 at 320 kbps will sound really good.

For sure, regarding 320 kbps, mike_ in_nc!

I’ve, just within the last week, started listening to HD Radio Blues Network at 320 kbps MP3 and it sounds great.  I think maybe Blues lends itself to be a bit more forgiving of less-than-perfect sources but, whatever the case, I’ve quit feeling guilty about listening to that level of resolution thru the tube amp after spending some time playing that station...
