Crosbyma-ma Crosby (ID: 000000a80c938a90) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/22/2020 It use to be that I could turn on my radio , tune to the station, and listen to the music that I wanted to listen stso. I now have to own a computer, be connected to the Internet, download an extention, find a station, subscribe to the station, add to Chrome, etc. It was nearly an hour's time and I still did not get the stream to listen to. Also It use to be that I could click a live stream button and voila, the station was playing. NO more fuss or frus. Why can't we just listen to the dang station when we type in the URL?I downloaded, I added to Chrome, and I installed,but still no station played. One star * not my time trying.
