I am not sure why WLRN waste money hiring a company to make it more difficult than it has to be to stream their programming online. I am not sure why they dont follow the lead of radio stations like KRCW or Minneapolis Public Radio; those organizations’ websites focus on access to the myriads of programs they broadcast and providing convenience tailored to the user.
Anyway, here is the unobfuscated link to WLRN’s webstream.
Do you think they would be interested on hiring a couple of gigs to give them the service of audio conversion for podcasting?
Ah, Minneapolis again… That city seems to have something special going on, ya know? It may not be an art “mecca” in the usual sense of LA, NY, or Chgo (or Miami) but, they seem to get things done without wasting tons of money and they do things well.
I should have done a podcast from there since I had the capability to do so. I had forgotten that I have an 800 phone number that records the voice msg’s as mp3s. Next time… 🙂
