Dirtyradio has been "unavailable" for over a week now, which I find somewhat perturbing. In the meantime, I've been catching up with my retro tunage listening, courtesy of WOXY Vintage.
Also in a retro mode, I found (via New Wave Outpost) this treasure trove of 80s MP3s -- some guy digitised a ton of his 12" vinyl, encoding it all at a high bitrate (192 kbps or better). There's plenty of cheese, but also some terrific nuggets in there. Download away.

For other listening enjoyment, there are now several CBC Radio Podcasts for you to choose from. The science show Quirks & Quarks has been offering podcasts for a while, but now you can also get a weekly super-condensed version of the Saturday afternoon pop-culture juggernaut Definitely Not the Opera, plus a weekly selection from the show Ideas (one of those shows that I keep meaning to listen to more often).

Wow...haven't heard many of these old tunes since my waxworks were accidentally 'donated' to the Sally Ann. Like many of my high school relics, some have aged better than others. :*)
