Here are some links to a few Internet Radio Stations, and some other sites that list them in much more detail. Just a reminder - if you don't have Broadband, this is likely to be a rather slow and frustrating experience, I'm afraid.
Internet radio can be picked up by any PC which has 'streaming' software such as RealNetwork's Real Player or Microsoft's Windows MediaPlayer. You probably already have this on your machine, even if you don't realise it - but read a helpful guide from the BBC by clicking here.
As long as you have the software on your machine, all you need to do is go to the radio site and click the link to play the radio broadcast.
Do let me know about any new stations you find that Oldies might like.
