From Live365:

Why does the broadcast skip while listening? (Ref. #001006-0001)

Question:

While listening to a Broadcast, I hear a lot of stuttering or skipping in the audio.

Solution:

Make sure your modem connection is the same or higher than the bitrate. (You cannot listen to a 56K bitrate stream with a 28.8K modem.)

I hate having a slow modem... and the radio I want to listen to is at a DSL connection! Booo!
