WFMU Mobile Streams
Which stream you choose to listen to will largely depend on what kind of audio software you have installed on your mobile device as well as how fast your mobile connection is. For best sound quality, we recommend using the highest bit rate stream that your mobile device will play without dropping out. By configuring your player to allow for proper buffering, the 128k stream is a viable option as long as you don't mind waiting 20-30 seconds for enough audio to cache. If you can successfully download the 128k live stream, then there's no stopping you from listening to our 128k mp3 archives as well. Just tapping onto the show's mp3 archive link will give you audio. It's that easy. As an added bonus, you will be able to listen to your mobile freeform listening device without the interference of your work's FIREWALL. Software Requirements In order to listen to WFMU you will need to have audio software installed on your mobile device that supports streaming audio. Whenever possible we provide reccomendations for free software but on some platforms, only paid software is available.
