It IS better than ever. I bet this is automated, but it might be nice to see the actual artist's names in the notes.

Like the graphics and is it me, or is the sound even better? My only complaint is that Spitfire Grill is no longer on the playlist.

The radio is what brought me to BWW for the first time over 4 years ago. Glad to have it back!

First of all, I LOVE IT!

and Question...Is it the same radio for everyone, or does everyone have thier own depending on what they request??
For instance, if I were to request a song, would everyone hear it? or just me?

To answer some of the questions:

- We're constantly adding new albums to the radio - in large amounts. Keep checking the requests page for your favorite albums. New albums are automatically cycled into the playlist when they are added, as well.

- Everyone hears the same songs. All requests are regularly cycled into the playlist.

Hope this helps!

I have a macbook and I still can't get it to work.

I try to download windows media player for macs, but it wouldn't work.
and realplayer is only for windows.... =(

I want to hear it so badly! Can anyone help me?

There's always been Real Player for Mac. I am on my imac and I am listening to it right now. Just go to real.com and download the free player. It's the blue button on the right that says, 'Get Real Player 11 - Free'

It's really great. The playlist is unexpectedly current, and the quality is top notch. Thanks for putting it up.

I love being able to request songs. It actually works and I end up hearing them about an hour or so later! Not every album I've looked for is listed, but it's still a great selection.

Like somebody else said, it was BWW radio that brought me here in the first place. Thus I am just super excited to have it back.

Could you stop playing the movie version of Evita? How about the Broadway cast, since this is BroadwayWorld Radio? The movie is awful, really a shame, and it comes on a LOT.

Also, how do you request songs? I could find anywhere on the website to give feedback of any kind (like my previous complaint about the movie verson of Evita).

[BWIDB Charlie]

re: It's Back And Better Than Ever...The New and Improved BroadwayWorld Rad#23

Posted: 3/11/08 at 8:33pm

Making a request is simple - on the player window, you'll notice a red button with music notes on it. Simply click that, choose a song and submit.

Evita (film soundtrack) has been requested a lot.

As far as feedback, you can mesasage me directly, or any of the other methods on the site.

Keep in mind, we're adding new features regularly.
