Hi Gil,

Here's a compilation of results from trying the internet streaming of
ALL the stations of MediCorp from within Safari (WMP didn't even
launch):

Good:-

92.4 Symphony <http://symphony.mediacorpradio.com/playlist.htm>
93.8 News
94.2 Warna
96.3 International
97.2 Love

No Good:-

89.7 Ria
90.5 Gold
93.3 YES
95.0 Class
95.8 Capital
96.8 Oli
98.7 Perfect 10

Apart from 89.7 Ria & 96.8 Oli, the rest are basically grouped together
based on popularity. This can probably explain the results - unable to
access the busy streaming server for the more popular stations
resulting in time-out from the server and an error message that says:
"Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and filename are correct
and try again."

I'd be curious to see if the results differ during the wee hours of the
night.

PS. Maybe someone from MediaCorp should be notified of this? I know,
let's arrow Hamish. :)
