Hey Joshua,

On ACB Radio, there should be a link that says "listen to ACB 
Radio (whichever channel you're listening to) using Windows Media 
Player." Click that and it should work.  About the NFB starting a 
radio station, unless we did it on the statewide level or on the 
special-interest division level, for example, NABS Radio, we'd 
probably have to clear it with the national office first.  
Otherwise, we would probably be running into some copyright 
problems.  But I don't see why NFB
can't start our own radio station, so maybe we can talk to Dr.  
Maurer or other national leaders about this.  Who knows; maybe it 
can be a topic for discussion at national convention! BTW, if any 
of you are going to convention this year, I'll be in the Maryland 
section, so if any of you want to meet up, please feel free!

The problem with ACB Radio, as I've mentioned in my previous 
post, is
that they don't work with WMP.
I can't listen.
I'd like to, though.
Speaking of the NFB starting a radio station, I think they should 
work
with my friend, Joey Weston, in starting one.
Through Our Eyes, can merge with this station.

I'll ask Joey, if he'd be willing to do this, because his station 
is
struggling for content.
Blessings, Joshua

 OK Joshua, I get the thing with ACB, but ACB Radio does carry
 some informative programs, like Main Menu.  I'm more of an NFB
 guy, but NFB doesn't have an Internet radio station, and I've
 found Main Menu to be very informative when it comes to
 technology, so I think we all can benefit from programs like
 this.

 Here we go again!
 ACB!
 My main problem, is that I can't get ACB Radio to cooperate, 
with
 Windows Media Player.

  Hello everyone,

  Well, the subject says it all! After a little time in which the
 stream
  for ACB Radio Mainstream was down, I am happy to report that it
 is
  once again live! Main Menu is currently on the air, and David
 Tanner
  is currently interviewing Rickie Enger from Serotek about the
 release
  of the new version of their Accessible Event meeting platform.
 After
  this interview, Main Menu will begin a new series entitled The
 Battle
  of the Notetakers.  This series will compare the features of 5
 popular
  notetakers, and help you make an informed decision about which
  notetaker to buy, and if you want a notetaker at all! From the
  responses I have seen on the Main Menu Friends list and on Main
 Menu's
  Twitter page, this seems to be a very highly anticipated 
series,
 and
  you might want to take a listen to it.  So head on over to
  www.acbradio.org/mainstream, and click the link for your player
 of
  choice to listen to the notetakers battle it out! Enjoy!

  Thanks,

  Chris
