Reliable online player

[ukrkoz]

Hi all

I have Samsung Droid Charge and started streaming music.

I am opened to honest suggestions on a RELIABLE online player. I tried Winamp, that will not happen again, I am using AOR - A Online Radio player, which is OK, except that it runs for about 10 minutes and simply stops playing. Screen says "stopped". Sometimes it will come back to playback, sometimes I need to give it a nudge.

Basically, I am looking for a player that works well with Androids, stays connected and keeps streaming, is easy to operate, and has good choices, esp in international stations.

Thank you

This is one of my favourite radio apps, I think all the streaming players have pause in play every now and then. Some days they work fine with no pause, other days they will pause for a few seconds.

nice! thank you.

I did some reading, and everyone raves about AOR that fails me so much. Also, I found Tunewiki and gave it a shot. So far, in about 2.5 hr non stop streaming, it dropped station once. That's very impressive. Output volume is quite low, otherwise, I am quite happy with it, as it has LastFM, Shoutcast, and something else built in, and I already have well manicured custom station set with LFM.

Now I am trying to figure out how to improve volume output. Yes, of course, the battery... I have chargers everywhere, he-he...

I use "Pandora" where you can customize your stations and listen to your music on your desktop as well. What I have noticed is the player will pause/stop when the signal is interrupted. (This is normal.) I can listen for hours without problems when the signal is good.

trying not to turn this into actual radio stations discussion, but I'll pass on pandora. I used them for several yrs off my pc, lastFM beats pandora by far.
