Check out Connected Radio. It's a plug-in that lets you select from 1000s of audio steams. You can also add your own favorite audio feeds. You can find the plug-in on DivX labs and many others.http://labs.divx.com/connected/plugins

There are already plug-ins for Last.fm and other audio streaming sources available on DivX Labs in the DivX Connected section. I'm sure there is more to come from the community.

This unit does not receive stations via FM transmission. However, once you hook it up to your network there is a local stations list. It will be the stations near the unit that stream via the internet. The programming will be slightly delayed compared to over the air programming. <<< just in case you are trying to be caller number 10.

if you are trying to use its online feature (radio, streaming audio, remote etc) it is better off to use a Apple TV or XBOX.Onkyo online stuff is not quite convenient to use (slow and lagging). i stop playing with it after a few weeks. hope this helps : )

Unfortunately Elias, this radio does not currently support pandora. We are working with Reciva and the other premium content providers and with future firmware upgrades hope to offer this support, but I can not tell you when this will happen. Until then you should have a wonderful time expoloring the over 9,000 it does have.

" thomman says: How about using a smart phone / PDA (such as Nokias or iPod Touch) that has applications to stream internet radio stations and it wont cost as much as this logitech.

You can only tune in to stations listed on Frontier Radio. I have Sirius/XM and I need a password to sign in on the internet. I haven't figured out a way to include my password in the IP address for Frontier.

Yes, If he has a high speed internet connection such as cable, DSL or UVerse he will be able to use if for internet radio. I have owned one of these for almost a year and it works well. An almost endless selection of radio stations from all over the world. When all the problems were going on in Missouri, I tuned to a local police scanner and heard first hand what was going on. Weather information and music, sports and so are available on this radio. It is not expensive and it is surely worth the money. He can use headphones with this radio and he can also hook it up to a larger stereo if he wants. I believe he will love it.

No, it is not. The limited selection is V-tuner, Slacker, Pandora, Music Unlimited. However, if you have a bluetooth equipped device that plays Sirius, you can stream from it to the receiver.

Hi Richard, STRDN850 Receiver doesn't have direct streaming function like accessing Pandora and TuneIn Radio. You need another device that supports streaming then you connect it on the receiver. -Vincent

You can get all the SiriusXM channels...including their internet only channels which you cannot get with their standard radios. For the full list of channels and numbers goto the SiriusXM website.I have had mine for about 1.5 years and haven't had any issues that weren't resolved by unplugging the unit and plugging it back in. It's kind of a no brainer to have if you already have an SiriusXM subscription with Internet Listening. Originally used it as bathroom radio and now its our kitchen radio.

It is only an internet radio, meaning you can only listen to stations over the internet. Having said that, we've found that all our favorite local AM/FM stations have internet simulcasts, so that we're also able to listen to local radio.

I'm pretty sure you can because I stream Iheart radio, on my ipod touch 5th generation sometimes. Pandora is an app like Iheart radio so I do foresee a problem.

I don't use Sirius, we listen to more than a few stations in europe and south africa with internet radio, have not noticed any issues with buffering.

I am not sure that you can. There are some streaming sites that are only set up for computer use, and maybe not for this player. The "channels" that you can get are already preprogramed on it, like Amazon Prime, Netflix and Vudu, along with many others. I would check on the Sony site for questions and their trouble shooting knowledge base for this player. I would also check the website that you are trying to stream and see if they have any information on if what you can stream it on.

No you don't need to use the computer to define a radio station. You can navigate through the Internet Radio directory (powered by RadioTime) to access thousands of radio stations. You can then save the station as a favorite and access it in the future with a simple button press (like on your car radio). If for some reason you can't find your favorite station from the directory, then you can use the computer to enter the URL for Squeezebox to play it. A computer is not required to access any Internet based content. And it does support Pandora, Rhapsody, Napster and a number of other services. Matt C Dir. Bus. Dev.
