I listen to an online radio station quite alot on my home computer, but I'd also like to be able to listen to it on the move.
Can anyone help me by telling me how I can do this?
I have a W660i, and all the links to the different streams for the station can be found HERE
Many thanx in advance

Couldn't get it to work on my V640i either.
I think the answer is on the page you linked to.
Unless your W660i runs WinAmp, Windows Media Player, iTunes, or Real Player you won't be able to stream the sound to your phone. Obviously it doesn't. 
The best option is probably to try downloading Podcasts from the station to your PC and transferring them to your phone
BTW are you aware of the substantial amount of bandwidth used by internet radio? Even if you could stream it to the phone it may violate the Fair Use Policy of your network providers Data Plan conditions.  |

I can get BBC radio 1 on my phone no problem, with a little searching around for the file and putting it straight onto my phone, but I can't get WoR on it.
I think the problem lies within the files.
For Example.....
When I download the .ram files, and convert them into .txt files I get different results.
For Radio 1 I get.............
rtsp://rmlive.bbc.co.uk/bbc-rbs/rmlive/ev7/live24/radio1/live/r1_dsat_g2.ra
?BBC-UID=74066be07e0ec3a1a029cb79010cdabe76091cd750f0600b2cad98
12976afd3c&SSO2-UID=
For WoR I get.......
http://216.66.69.140:6004
I think this is why it won't work, but just want to find out if I can make it work. |

I skip the UID so my link for Radio1 ends with the .ra
The WoR link needs a /listen.pls on the end. This filetype is not recognised by my phone.
