Echoes is the daily soundscape of world fusion and ambient music, interviews and Living Room Concerts that has aired on Public Radio International stations since 1989. Now, streaming audio has enabled us to offer both this week's Echoes programs and selections from our extensive archive for on-demand listening anytime. Echoes began broadcasting in October, 1989. Our growing archive includes
nearly 3,000 programs, 1,000 features and over 400 Living Room
Concerts. Options and Costs Providing
on-demand audio is expensive, and Echoes On-Line has no advertisements, pop-ups or pleas for donations. The majority
of your subscription fee goes to the costs of storage and streaming,
music rights and royalties, processing and customer service
fees. STANDARD

Listen to a Sample: Feature:
This feature is coded the same as all the Echoes On-Line Programs, so it represents the sound quality you will get on your connection. All shows will have the same sound quality as this sample. A
half-hour of Echoes: This sample is coded at a lower rate than our on-line archive of shows, so it will have a lower sound-quality than the programs you will hear as a subscriber. If you are unfamiliar with Echoes, this sample will give a sense of what a typical Echoes program sounds like. If you'd like to check the sound quality that you will get on your particular internet connection, play the interview feature at the top of this column. That sample is coded as a variable-bandwidth Real Audio "Surestream" file that will give you the best quality that your connection can provide and represents the actual sound quality you can expect when you subscribe to Echoes On-Line.
