Thanks Art,

I've also been using Pandora, where you can create your own "station" by 
suggesting an artist i e Louis Armstrong or Lu Watters and their 
artificial intelligence will find others of the same genre.  I have 
created several stations from Louis to bluegrass, big band etc and then 
set it on random mix.  The downside is that there are a few video and 
audio commercials, but they are few and don't last long.  I just found 
out from a friend in the UK that Pandora is US only.

Listening to Dave Radenour's Jazz Rhythm and Bix right now
