NPR: When I Want It, How I Want It

I was listening often to NPR’s Morning Edition and All Things Considered via the NPR web site. But there was a delay before NPR would post the shows online, and I hated having to use RealPlayer.

Then Sean told me about KCRW, public radio from Santa Monica College. Not only do they provide live streaming of NPR, but they have an MP3 stream, which means I can listen in iTunes. The timing is perfect, too. When I wake up, All Things Considered is on; when I come home from work, I can tune into Morning Edition.

KCRW also has an excellent music stream. But wait, there’s more! They have a world news stream, as well (which, unfortunately, requires RealPlayer).
