It's point is to counteract the O'Reilly Factor.

I would have thought that was obvious.

Maybe it's there because the OWNERS of this PRIVATELY OWNED site want to do it

Actually, I think it's a rather interesting addition to the "World of Apolyton."

Hey, maybe we can pitch an "Apolyton Wide World of Sports."

Not sure that there are many sports on Apoly other than Spam Tossing though......

What's on the radio?

Can I start my own anti-goverment radio show?

Good. At least I know that I'm not the only one not being able to get the radio to work.

I guess even though the radio area/forum is up, there are still some problems on getting the radio to actually work...

I don't have a problem with Apolyton Radio. Don't use it much, but I have enjoyed it.

BTW Ming, I think we all get that part of it (at least those of us with positive IQ's). Never hurts to discuss things though...The OWNERS of this PRIVATELY OWNED site do have the ability to kill any thread that has a discussion they don't want to read. (But of course YOU already knew that)

Hi Wittlich.

Do you have RealPlayer (G2 or later) or RealOne installed on your computer? What error message(s) do you receive from the program or otherwise when you try to listen to a broadcast?

Oops and Yes, I just noticed that. Normally I do not have Real Player because of the related spam from it .... but I will probably download it just to keep up to date with the "pulse" of Apolyton.

I'm going to bed now, but I will most likely D/L realplayer tomorrow and let you know what results I get.

Is there a reason this (awfull) realplayer is used?
I've installed it many times but I just can't stand it and uninstall it almost immediately every time.

Hi Alva.

Yes, there is a reason why RealNetworks' technology is being used to power Apolyton's radio system. See http://apolyton.net/misc/radio/faq.shtml for more specifics. All you have to do is read it...

As for the software itself, and as previously stated, one can use any incarnation of RealPlayer G2+ or the newer RealOne player to listen to the broadcasts; the reason why older versions of the program are not supported is also explained in the document linked to above.

I've d/l RealOne and now Apolyton Radio works like a charm. Thanks Dan.

Dan....your FAQ probably could do with an update.

Code:
Long term plans are to offer MP3 streams of ACSR on or by February, 2002.
Unless of course you live your life backwards

Hey...maybe that's it. Maybe Dan has solved the number one problem for science today. Why does time only have one direction?

Opps -- an oversight on my part. I have modified the document accordingly.
