Internet radio stations that sound really good

Shoutcast allows searching by bit rate. Usually, if a radio streamer bothers with 320kbps streaming, the sound is pretty good, IME, for internet radio.

I enthusiastically recommend Radio Paradise as well--I even sent them $25 as a supporter. Give it a few hours listen, they really shift genres.

I absolutely love Radio Paradise. They cross a number of genres but, at the same time, they seem to hit on the tunes that can successfully cross over and be enjoyable to everyone. Listener supported, commercial free. It's the only station I feel the need to listen to and I like it so well I also became a contributor.
Here's the 192k stream url which doesn't have the artist/song info but you can always open up the website to see.

Great thread!!!

OK.... Here is a great suggestion.

#1: One Apple TV Internet box. Many APP's. including "Radio" $100.00

#2: One Tube Dac. Mine is a Jolida Glass Tube Dac/2. $490.00

#3: One good quality Toslink. Mine is an AudioQuest Cinnamon $100.00 I think.

All are NEW prices.

#4: Plug it all up and tune the Apple TV to "Radio". Scroll through the many music categories and select: JAZZ
#5: Scroll thru the Jazz stations til you come to: WWNO HD3 (PBS New Orleans) Select That one. It is outstanding.

#6: Check to see if your Depends are dry.
#7: Turn your audio system ON and LISTEN to some great, high definition Jazz. Complete Bliss.
#8: Listen till your Depends are damp.
#9: Turn system off and go change Depends.
#10: Return and repeat steps #4 thru #7

For 100 bucks, a Toslink and a cheap dac... This is the easiest and least expensive way that I know of (outside of FM Radio) to have great sounding music 24/7. Even if you have a "to die for" audio system, this is still great listening. Mine plays nearly non-stop. If you don't mind feeling a bit damp, you can even listen a bit longer.

IMHO
