WBEZ Dumping Jazz - WEB Alternatives?

With my local Jazz station (WBEZ) planning to dump jazz, I'd like suggestions for WEB-Based alternatives for streaming Jazz and Blues programming

(If this topic has been discussed previously, i'm sorry.)

WBGO plays a lot of what WBEZ has had on the air, Leon.

WKCR is a national treasure. Of course, they play many other things besides jazz (much of which I loved to hear too...the ragas, the world stuff, the blues, etc...and so on).

Check out the program schedule to see what I mean.

Leon, you're getting some sage advice.

I'm listening to one of my favorites as I type, KCSM. They're one of the very few 24 hour listener-supported jazz stations left in America. Sad, but true.

KCSM also offers streaming audio for five different Media Players at varying speeds.
