WKTU's stream is even worse now.

I just turned on WKTU from ktu.com and the sound quality is much worse than ever, all distorted and the bitrate was lowered to 20kbps which really reeks. Even wcbsfm.com at 40kbps sounds better than that. They should fix that problem already.
 
Just be luck you can get them at all.
Some day's I can get CC's KMYI from San Diego on one computer but not the other, and BOTH are hooked up to the same wifi network. Seems to me CC needs to iron out their streaming issues...

Yes it's terrible to listen to at the moment. CC have the most badly sounding livestreams. Some stations sounding good, they feed the livestream directly from the main processing or they have a special webstream soundprocessor. But there is lots work to do with some livestreams. Z100 sounding 'good', nothing more, nothing less. Lite FM's livestream sounding 'flat' but no distortion. Q 104.3 sounding a little bit better now. They sounding also distorted and overmodulate but the sound is to softer now, but the stereo signal have a little bit of fasing sound.
