How to listen to SomaFM
If you already have iTunes, Winamp, Windows Media Player or another compatible stream player installed, just pick a station to listen to from our front page or the list below.
Our highest quality streams are 128k AAC streams, followed by 64kb aacPlus streams, 128k MP3 streams; 32k aacPlus streams, and then the Windows Media streams. We are phasing out 32k MP3 streams because of lack of interest and poor sound quality.
We have a new Orban aacPlus plugin available for Windows Media Player, it's a quick install and then you can listen to our excellent sounding aacPlus feeds right in your Windows Media player!
If you are listening at work and find that you can't access our MP3 streams (some corporations block streaming MP3 radio), please try our Windows Media streams as most corporate firewalls don't restrict them.
