Listening to Internet radio 
stations
Internet radio is an audio broadcasting service 
transmitted via the Internet. There are a large 
number of Internet radio stations broadcast-
ing a variety of services from every corner of 
the world. Some are hosted, managed, and 
broadcast by private individuals while others 
are by the corresponding traditional terrestrial 
radio stations or radio networks. Whereas ter-
restrial, or OTA (over-the-air), radio stations are 
geographically restricted on the range of radio 
waves broadcast from a transmitter through 
the air, Internet radio stations are accessible 
from anywhere in the world, as long as there is 
a connection to the Internet, as services are not 
transmitted through the air but are delivered 
over the World Wide Web. On this receiver you 
can select Internet radio stations by genre as 
well as by region.
Depending on the Internet line conditions, 
the sound may not be smooth when playing 
Internet radio.
