Where the hell is this Last.fm app? I still can't find it on the Marketplace.
Could it be not available in some countries?

Yes, the Last.fm app might be limited to USA only as i DL'ed it and used it here in the States.

Shoutcast?!??! or Windows Media ASX steams??? how do we play these?

I'm trying to play an M3U stream, the only way I can work it is by emailing the URL and then opening it on the phone. It works but its not exactly great, if the signal is lost it doesnt rebuffer, it just plays what it had buffered up until connection lost over and over and over again!

Thanks for the reply.
So it also means that all the countries have no access to the same apps.

I'm in the UK & downloaded Last fm without any problem. It works great & is integrated into Zune.

I guess you found it here?:
Marketplace/Applications/Music and Videos ?
Thanks

it's available in uk as weepatc said and it works perfectly.

Last.fm doesnt have the radio i want to listen to though!

sigh still no shoutcast

I am hopeful for a way to listen to XM Radio. I have an account and there was a WM app that made this possible. The regular internet on WP doesn't allow me to listen to my online account for some reason. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Has anyone got XM to play on their new WP?

try slacker radio app

Hopefully pocket player (conduits.com) will have WP7 version, but it costs you.

I emailed sirius about a wp7 app and they were noncommital about any app forthcoming. Hopefully it will come out soon.

I'm looking for a streaming app that has NPR. I usually listen to it on my morning commute but was using my iPhone for it. Now that I've moved over I don't have something to replace it. I'm hoping someone will come up with something soon as Slacker doesn't load well or load at all sometimes on my phone (htc Surround). There aren't any other apps for listening to NPR / public radio streams unless I over looked it?
iHeartRadio doesn't have the stations and has some audio issues sometimes.

Bumping up an old thread. I've just released a Siriux/XM app for WP7, and its live in the Marketplace now. Its called Sat Rad Player and you can find it at the following link:
http://social.zune.net/External/Lau...oneAppID=ecc794a8-aa58-e011-854c-00237de2db9e
We've set up some forums as well at http://www.satradplayer.com/Forums where people can get support or suggest enhancements to the app to make it better.
Check out the trial version and let me know what you think.

Yeah, this is a massive gaping hole in both WP7 and Zune's media playback capabilities. I'm hoping they introduce support in a future verson. I mean, it's not difficult. Sadly, I think the truth is they'd rather you were buying music from the Zune store.
Just one of many examples of the "dumbing down" of technology that seems all the rage these days.

Use TuneIn Radio for WP7... It's a great app
I am in France and listen to NPR everyday, but also WNYC, KCRW, etc....
TuneIn allows you to listen to both Internet Radios and podcasts.

Managing music on PC and syncing with the Desire... best app?

Hey,
Looking for a music app to manage my music with that'll sync with my Desire.
I dual boot windows and ubuntu, so it doesn't matter which platform the software is for.
I know Windows media player will do it - but I don't like using it.
Really like itunes - but the current itunes software sync hacks are still pretty buggy - so am looking for an alternate app
Any recommendations would be great.
Cheers!

Try media monkey, it's allways been ok for me.
Try doubleTwist, you will have to google it as I cant post links yet!!!
you can use winamp as well ... there is even a guide on how to sync android with winamp. Just do a google and you can find it.

I'm liking double twist... syncs well with the desire, general playback is quite good and it has access to all my favourite podcasts
mediamonkey syncing works but isn't too brilliant with this phone... and it can't find my podcasts :S
Winamp next
You say that the current itunes sync hacks are buggy but I use a program called Itunes Agent that works great for me. To quote from their website:
"ITunes Agent is a tiny application which rests in your system tray, constantly looking for devices being connected to your system. If a device it recognizes is connected it enables you to manage it via a playlist in iTunes...When you are done modifying the list of tracks for your player you can synchronize it with two small mouse-clicks!"

streaming AM radio like cumulus

I was disappointed to find out that Android on our phone doesnt support any AM streaming radio.
Anything on the horizon for this ?

Gee, that was helpful.
Believe it or not, just because you personally can't deduce a reason for wanting something doesn't mean there isn't one. I'm with the op. Would love a way to do this. Why don't you go troll elsewhere?
A Online Radio
If it's streaming then it doesn't really matter if it uses the AM or FM band originally. Maybe find the station you want and see if they have a stream. Lots of terrestrial radio stations have a basic Shoutcast-style mp3 stream that can be played in all sorts of media players. Same goes for FM.
Between A Radio Online and StreamFurious I am able to get all of my streaming radio stations. Perhaps use google and see if you can find a URL that A Radio Online can stream, then you should be golden. Often the website for the station will stream it in flash or perhaps windows media, but there is often a plain media stream behind those that can be used.
Can't find streaming talk radio for rush limbaugh yet. Cumulus streaming is the best on the net but just not compatible with android EVO. Worked fine with palm and windows. Trying a radio online now

Thanks for the suggestion. I am trying to stream 790theticket.com and I am unable to stream this on my EVO. Any suggestions?
Well, it's obviously a liberal plot cooked up by Obama and Google to keep the truth away from us
Seriously though, I just searched for a local AM station that carries his show and found the link on their page:
http://provisioning.streamtheworld.com/pls/WMALAMAAC.pls
Add that to any app that can play streaming aac and it should work fine. Not sure if he allows his show to be rebroadcast but assuming this stream plays everything that the station does then you can get all the Rush you want when his show is on.

Should We Install The Zune Software Now?

Im already sold on Windows Phone 7 ill be getting one as soon as verizon launches a htc phone with a big screen and keyboard, but i was wondering if i go to download the zune software now will this be the same software compatible with the phones? and is there anything we can do now with our phones or mp3 collection with the software now in preparation? like add album artwork or anything with the zune software? im trying to get use to the software before the phones launch

the current downloadable vers of zune does not support wp7 however zune client will inform you of the new update with wp7 included.. with that said i would go ahead and install it to add all your music, videos and pics it is truly the best music, video client i have ever seen light years ahead of that lame itunes and it does not recopy your music and use up all of your hd space recopying all your music.
Yes, you should definitely install it. It's awesome software with or without Windows Phone.

Agree with you. It can be a replacement of windows media player. of course, I am using it now, even though i did not own zune device. great performance, quick start up than windows media player, nicer, more functionalities and one most important function which is you can set and add your own media folder to the Zune player.
Scenario: if you placed all your music in the desk top "music folder", you can add this directory into zune and zune will recognise them and add them into your music playlist without create a new database like itunes did.
Give it a try...I'm sure you will like it...
i just downloaded it and its asking for a account in order to play specific content what kind of account do i need to make?
edit: does it matter if i use a aol or hotmail/msn account to register with zune

I didn't experienced this scenario before. however, i think it is doesn't matter you use which account, but it's more convenient if you use hotmail....because both are Microsoft products and there should be a mutual link between them and easy for you to remember the password when you use microsoft's products.
just to update u guys i downloaded it and its AMAZING never had a zune before but this interface is amazing and you can burn cds with this as well i will be using this over windows media player from now on havent tried burning a cd yet.
for those with a zune player are u able to get album art like u can on the desktop version? i wonder if we will be able to get album art with the wp7 version

Wow, really? thats cool...thanks for your information...It would be nice,when using 3G or Wifi to grab album art...without access to PC.
OP I was thinking the same thing, and I did install Zune.
My thoughts;
It looks cool, the interface is 'fresh' and makes iTunes look dated.
But the biggest problem is that I can't seem to managed the actual files and can't 'show in explorer'. That's a real problem for me as I let itunes organise my music so my file structure is a nightmare to actually edit files outside of using itunes to browse. (any tips)
I also find it quite slow, (1.3ghz 2g RAM), which was disappointing. If I had a better PC it might be better.
I think I may stick to iTunes, its not a big deal to sync as a phone is only going to hold ~10g anyway.

I don't think it will do that (unless you buy something from the Marketplace or use a Zune Pass). But it definitely does pull down all sorts of info like artist bios and other artwork/pictures. It might rely on being properly categorized/labeled first when it's been synced in which the Zune software will take care of for the most part. Also, when you plug your phone into any power, it can hop on your WiFi connection automatically and sync wirelessly.

as long as the song have the correct title, album and artist it will get the album art. no zune pass needed. it works just like the desktop vers.

Seems like a reasonable assumption, but since there won't actually be any phones available until the end of the month we might have to wait for the new ZUNE software until then.

Alright, back to the main point.
Skydrive allow you to have 2GB Free... would be nice to have music up there but i mean like, is it really necessary? because i never filled my 16GB with Apps and Music.
This is puzzling. Zune is by far the best streaming service of all three OSes. You can listen to anything. iOS is limited to what you have in your collection. Google Music is the stupidest thing on Earth - why would anyone want to upload their own stuff and then stream it from there? Why would anyone choose that over Zune Pass?

Yeah, that's true. I'm using it here but I agree, it's not easy and most people wouldn't do it.
Still uploading your own stuff to the cloud and listening from there sounds weird to me. The value in Zune Pass isn't the fact that stuff is streamed, and that's the only thing that is similar in Google Music.

I agree, Zune pass is the best of the three services. Although you have to pay for it.
On a side note, has anyone set up a Windows Home Server? I downloaded an app to connect to my server and now I can stream my personal music collection directly off of it. Zune Pass + personal collection on Home Server = endless music.
I have a Windows Home Server at home and that's where I store stuff including music. But I don't stream it from there though. The main problem with streaming is battery drain. It's much more practical to just copy music to the phone. If it had more generous storage I would have to do it just once.

how does home server work? Does ur computer have to always work? When you stream is the music history saved in the zune player shuffled with what's already on your memory card?
