Hi all- I can reply to the part of the message regarding the "the many online 24/24 classical music broadcasts" The fault with the track listings has to do with the CD manufacturer - they are often poorly coded, and when the digital files are ripped, a lot of information isn't there, or if its a Sony Classical disc, it is often coded in Japanese, and completely useless. If I can ever get this station to turn even a modest profit, I will get an intern and pay a stipend just to manually update all the discs. :) Kelly Rinne Music Director http://classicalmusicbroadcast.com *********************************************** The CLASSICAL mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's HDMail High Deliverability Mailer for reliable, lightning fast mail delivery.
