At the last BTC meeting there was some disagreement as to
whether RealAudio material sounded good in general.

Try the content at these sites as an example

Open the statistics window (View menu) in the RA player
and watch for the loss percentage and how that
affects the quality of the audio.

To be realistic test this during Internet busy times around 1-5pm.
If it still sounds good to you, I can make you a great deal
on a one-speaker stereo system :)

CBC Radio News on the Internet (CMU-local cache)

This area should contain copies of the most recent CBC Radio News broadcasts that are made available on the Internet courtesy of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

If things are working properly, you should find four daily newscasts here.

  1. The World Report, 12.5 minutes of international news at 8:00 EST (13:00 GMT) daily.
  2. Canada at Five, 9.5 minutes of Canadian domestic news from 17:00 EST (22:00 GMT) Monday through Saturday.
  3. The World at Six, 29.5 minutes of domestic and international news from 18:00 EST (23:00 GMT) daily.
  4. The 10 O'clock News, 15 minutes of Canadian domestic news and sports from 22:00 EST (03:00 GMT) weekdays.

The data should arrive at this site by 45 minutes after the hour for the short broadcasts and by the start of the next hour for The World at Six.
