Where are the Radio Stations in iTunes Radio?

Am I missing something?

Where are the radio stations in iTunes Radio. Would like to listen to my out of town sports and news stations.

If cannot happen makes no sense to call this iTunes Radio?

You need to activate the Button in iTunes Preferences. Go to iTunes Preferences/General/Show/Select: Internet Radio.

Then go to iTunes/Music/Internet

Music only.

Did Joe's instructions solve your problem?

No.

iTunes Radio does not have radio stations.

Thanks, Joe.  That brought back the Internet Radio section for me.

It works, Joe Gramm. You said:

"You need to activate the Button in iTunes Preferences. Go to iTunes Preferences/General/Show/Select: Internet Radio"

Now when I click on "Music" in the left bar, the menu bar now includes a selection labled (rather unintuitively) "Internet" which is separate from "Radio" and allows me to connect to my out of town radio stations. This is the solution I was looking for.

Thanks Joe been going round in circles trying to find this!

To clarify, the list of radio stations shows up as "Internet" on the horizontal menu bar, not below the Music drop-down menu.  You can then create a new Playlist for each radio station you wish to access on a regular basis.  Just drag the radio station into the Playlist box that appears on the right.

The problem with this solution is that it garbles your collections of music and radio stations.  Almost untenable.

Obviously, Apple is doing what it can to make free items that compete with its commercial fare less accessible.

This stuff and podcasts should properly be on top. 

You should create a new Playlist folder, Internet Radio or Radio or whatever, and then stash your chosen radio station feeds into that folder.  Then delete them from the general Playlist folder.

Hi Bob,

I think that you were thinking that "iTunes Radio" proper... is the same thing as iTunes Internet radio - the one that has sports talk radio stations available for your listening pleasure. It's not. I think that you are reading more into the situation than is truly warranted because I think that iTunes Internet radio was already available before they even came up with iTunes Radio.

iTunes Radio as touted within the iTunes Store is the one that you have to have Mac OS X Lion at the least to listen to. I've never had it because I run Snow Leopard. My guess is that iTunes Radio probably has much less commercials.

Anyway, the internet radio offerings found within iTunes that you can enable within the iTunes/Preferences/General Preferences/ (then select checkbox for Internet Radio) is simply not the same thing. I think that those stations are simply stations that can be found by using either a browser or through iTunes.

Cheers,

mm~

Michael, I know the difference between the services.  I have been accessing Internet-available radio stations since iTunes was first introduced.  It used to be very easy to find Internet-available radio stations.  Apple has complicated the situation with its mashup, iTunes Radio, and by burying the real radio stations under two or three layers of commands.  I'm now back to normal (for me):  a Playlist folder retitled "Internet Radio" full of links to Internet-available radio stations -- and no iTunes Radio.  I don't share Apple's tastes in anything.

Thanks, Joe..  It works perfectly for me..

I have  followed the instructions, and the "Internet" option does not appear anywhere. I am beyond frustrated!

Tick Internet Radio.

Can you do this?
