Radio Station
My favorite radio station is KPRI FM, 102.7 out of Encinitas, CA. It is independently owned and plays a mix that I've never found 0n any other station. I am now spoiled from listening to it, and get bored listening to pretty much any other music station.
Unfortunately, they discontinued streaming audio on the Internet on 24 April 2007 due to a decision by the Copyright Royalty Board that drastically increased the royalties that internet radio stations must pay the copyright holders of music that is played, apparently over and above the royalties that are paid for broadcasting over the air. That's a shame, because this is the kind of station the world needs to hear.
If you live in San Diego, your likely to be able to tune in if you're north of I-8 or have a line-of-sight to the station's transmitter in Encinitas. If you're a thinking music fan who likes to hear a little from all genres and a little from all decades from the 60s to the present, and can receive KPRI's signal, by all means try it out.
Enjoy!
