Listen to digital radio on your PC
What’s your favourite radio station ?
(mine is Magic, but I also love Heart)
Do you know you can listen to it being broadcast live over your internet connection (using any computer) ?

I tune into Magic by visiting:
radioplayer.magic.co.uk/live/
You can search for your favourite station (or a station playing the music of your choice), by using Google
