Q: Do I need to download software to listen to The Freeway?

A: The Freeway works using both an embedded player and stand-alone players such as Real Player, WinAmp, Windows Media Player and iTunes. If you do not have a stand-alone player installed on your computer, make sure to click on the embedded player link on the Tune In page. The Windows Media Player plugin for this embedded player comes with most browsers.

Q: Can I record music from The Freeway?

A: No. We're glad to have you listen all day, day after day if you like. But our music licensing FORBIDS recording our streams. We pay to provide this service and your IP address will be BANNED if you abuse it by automaticly re-connecting with known streamripping players like sr-POSIX, FreeAmp or RadioTracker.

If you hear a song you like on The Freeway, please consider purchasing it through an Amazon.com or iTunes.com link on our site.


Q: Why can't I hear any music?

A: Occasionally our site does experience hiccups. Feel free to send us an e-mail if you think that is the case at webmaster@freewayradio.com.

Most of the time the problem can be fixed by adjusting browser and filtering software settings. Be sure to allow streaming media. And in the case of the embedded player, allow cookies and javascript in your browser settings.

If you hear the audio but experience frequent breaks in a song, you may have a bandwith problem. Consider listening to the dial-up stream rather than broadband stream, or wait there is less traffic on your network.
