1. I only listen to Randi's show via RealPlayer and haven't noticed that

They have some rock muzak playing during commercial breaks instead of ads.

During the rest of the day I listen to AAR via our local FM affiliate (and switch to Randi via RealPlayer when Ed comes on).

:shrug:

3. right. but you know how they run a commercial or two when they

first go on break?

well, something kicks in and it starts repeating a piece of it, like a "call now for blablabla" over and over--it's like brainwashing!!! and a box pops up and i have to close it.

well, if it starts happening on your real player and you can figure out how to stop it please let me know.

2. I have been having the same problem with

media player. I think it has something to do with your memory cache but I haven't figured out how to fix it yet. Good luck.

4. I've Been Having Problems For Weeks...

And their tech support never answers me...But my problem is different...when I start to listen, everything's fine, for a while, but then it starts to waver in and out...If I quit and start over, it's ok again...I never had this problem before so I don't think it's a settings thing...but it's annoying...

5. Try this. I stream it all day, no ads, no spyware, no nags.

6. plug this link into your browser

mms://rx-wes-sea145.rbn.com/farm/*/airam/airam/wmlive/live.asf:1

and you'll get a notice about launching a application -- it is Windows media player.

This stops the ads -- I've switched from Real player classic to the above link.

Someone on DU suggested this link last week.
