Internet Radio
Clicking the Radio button on the MusicMatch Jukebox Plus window whisks you off to the company’s server, where you can sign up for an account with the MusicMatch MX Platinum subscription service. The service costs $5 a month and offers Internet radio streams from over 8,000 performers, like the one shown in Figure 5-15. A free trial is available on the site, as is a tutorial on how to use it.
Figure 5-15. MusicMatch MX can bring streams of music flowing from the Internet into your computer. While you listen to the radio over the Internet, you can browse the MusicMatch site for tracks by other artists with a similar sound.
MusicMatch MX has helpful features like Artist on Demand to search for certain musicians, and Artist Match, which purports to find acts that sound like your favorites. You can listen to low-bandwidth streams of popular music and programming from online radio stations free of charge—by clicking them in the list at the left side of the window.
