Using Live365
Registering with Live365 is quick, free, and the only real info Live365 requires is a working e-mail address. After signing up, sign in to Live365 once and click the 'Remember Me' box and you may never need to sign in again on that computer.
If you already have a Live365 account you can launch the broadcast from the Tune In Now icon below.
Via LaLa.com
If you try to tune in and get a "STATION FULL" message through Live365, you can always stream it through our friends at La La:
Other Ways to Tune In
Did you know that you can listen to BAGeL Radio using iTunes, The Live365 Player, WinAmp, RealOne Player, QuickTime Player, Windows Media Player, and pretty much any web browser?
Just plug one of the following URLs into the appropriate address/URL/stream window:
Listen on your Phone
Believe it or not you can also listen to BAGeL Radio through your PalmOS-enabled phone using Pocket Tunes.
Listen through your XBox
Read instructions on how to listen to BAGel Radio through your XBox.
Listen through your TiVo (Series 2 only)
 (Thanks to Jeff & Nick for these TiVo instructions)
Note: This only works with a Series 2 TiVo. You can check if you have a Series 2 through the “Settings” menu on TiVo. Also, your TiVo needs to be connected to the internet via broadband
1) Press the TiVo button and go to “Music, Movies and more”
2) If you already have an option that says “Live365”, skip down to number 6
3) Using your internet-brand browser on your computer, go to http://research.tivo.com/onlineservices/
4) Sign up (you will have to create an account with tivo.com if you don’t already have one)
5) Wait impatiently until the option appears on your TiVo menu; it took about a week for me. This might be a good time to read that book you’ve been putting off or quit caffeine. Also, write a nice letter to your mom – she misses you
6) Follow the instructions to log into your Live365 account - while doing so, curse the interface designers that came up with this text entry scheme
7) All your presets will appear; go immediately to BAGeL Radio and then throw away your TiVo remote
Or, once you have the Tivo HMO option enabled - either via signing up for the
service or hacking your box ;) you can play Bagel Radio from a saved
playlist:
First, create a playlist by selecting Winamp option from Live365,
bookmarking and saving as a m3u playlist
If you are using Windows TiVo Desktop:
- Go to Music & Photos
- Under Music, click 'Add Music'
- Browse to the saved m3u file and click 'Add'
To use JavaHMO instead (much more powerful & flexible open source
implementation):
- install Windows JavaHMO from sourceforge: http://javahmo.sourceforge.net/
(requires Java to be installed first)
- open the JavaHMO config applet
- add a JavaHMO playlist plugin pointing to the playlist file called 'BAGeL
Radio'
Now you can go to TiVo Menu, Music & Photos, Select BAGeL Radio and play!
Simple and free :)
Record the Station
To record the station when you can't catch it live, BAGeL Radio recommends RadioLover and Audio Hijack for Mac users, and here's an article that recommends a couple of different Windows programs.
