There is no such thing as "Streaming radio."

Internet streaming is no more like radio than intravenous is like fine dining.

“There is no such thing as “Streaming radio.” Not in Amish Canada, do you even have electricity?

If it isn't broadcast over the air, it isn't radio.

That’s where you’re wrong. Internet radio is broadcasting over the internet. Your silly statement is just that, silly. You might as well say satellite radio is not radio. But it is, it’s broadcasting from a satellite and internet radio is broadcasting from a website. So Einstein it’s all broadcasting.

Radio – A way of sending and receiving words, music etc. by electric waves without connecting wires. Apparatus for receiving and making audible sounds so sent
Data transferred across the Internet is not radio.

But you're right about satellite radio. It is truly radio. Hams have been using satellite communications for decades. They were pioneers in the technology.

So in your pea brain you would also say HD Radio is not radio because it’s transmission is data instead of words and music.

OK you win. I'm not going to waste any more energy debating this with you.

The Internet is a radio and that race car arcade game is a real car.

WRONG, Internet radio is still considered broadcasting. Look it up on the internet. Radio stations get information via the internet. Bottom line it’s all radio.

Let's just call them streaming music sites, and all will be good. :)

Here's some of my personal favorites:

Radio Paradise
SomaFM
Handcrafted Radio
andHow.fm
Third Rock Radio from NASA
McIntosh Music -- yes the McIntosh that makes audio equipment ;)
89.3 The Current
KEXP
WFUV
Dash Radio
88.5 FM SoCal (KCSN)

This should be enough, I think. :)

(Edited because I forgot about one)

Radio Paradise and Dash both excellent. Dash “Sixties” and Dash “Church of Rock’n Roll” both great channels and the fact that Dash is all commercial free is fantastic. I have internet connectivity in one my vehicles and tune in to Dash a lot lately.
