Apologies for starting yet another Xmas music thread, but our office recently got brand-new computers with _gasp!_ sound cards, so I’ve only just now discovered online radio.

Does anyone know any online music sites that play only Christmas music? I’d prefer classical, but I can tolerate any kind of holiday music this side of Ray Stevens.

Just offhand, there’s a local station here which has Christmas programming for the next 10 days and they have an internet audio feed. Looks like you need to register in order to get the 'net feed.

[97.1 WASH-FM](http://www.washfm.com/).

Or [Sunny 106.3](http://www.sunny106fm.com/) if you’d prefer a non-Clear Channel member.

For something closer to you, there’s [Star 99.1](http://www.star991fm.com/) but if you really want classical Christmas music, give [WGMS](http://www.wgms.com/index.php?nid=181) a listen. Use RealPlayer, WMP doesn’t seem to be working.

AccuRadio has 26 channels of Christmas music at [http://www.accuholidays.com](http://www.accuholidays.com) None of them is classical, but you do have the benefit of being able to skip songs or exclude artists you dislike.

And if you happen to really want to hear dozens and dozens of versions of “The Christmas Song”, you’re in luck…
