The generic term for streaming music on-line. Content is in the form of MP3s, WAVs, sound card input (live feed) or any other file type that a computer can play. The primary difference between Internet radio and traditional MP3 music is when playing a MP3 the music file itself is physically located on your PC. Internet radio however is continuously playing, or "streaming", from a server on-line. The listener tunes in with a player program such as Winamp which receives the incoming audio data and plays it. Unlike with traditional MP3 downloading, the listener is unable to save or replay the content received on a stream after it has come through.
