And maybe it would have been a simple thing to get RP added. Not sure. But thanks for investigating! Note: The CC Wifi uses Reciva technology. C. Crane has no control over content or the provider for internet radios.

I guess it's $20 now. It's free with the MLBtv subscription so I wasn't aware they'd upped it.

Yeah, its the most recent version with 'premium Dolby sound' and Alexa. Sounds good period. Got a Fire Stick at the same time that also has Alexa. Haven't used the FS yet but it will eventually go in the TV and make the pad a remote control. And when I really want to get jiggy, the TV has optical out to the receiver so I can go for it if I want to. It does make the receiver optional, which is good.

Sonos speakers are also a great way to get internet radio to random spots. WiFi is far superior to bluetooth for rebroadcasting audio for about a billion reasons.

You have 60 days to return it, no questions asked. Still looking at this radio. My present clock radio is 35 years old and its an analogue tuner so changing channels in the middle of the night is a bitch. I've been listening to evening and overnight talk since I was a kid when I built my Remco crystal radio and listened with one of those old fashioned ear pieces. Mine was before there was the single sided headphone. In the meantime, I got my first tablet, an Amazon Fire HD. Haven't really used it a whole lot yet, other than as a portable radio. I've got RP and I ♥ Radio and some stations that I must use their webpage in order to listen. Its pretty cool doing that. Nice radio there.
