    As for more comments. I don't see much difference between ACSR and audio newsletter, as it's pretty much the same. Just as I downloaded audio newsletters and listened to them, one can do here. I enjoyed audio-news, and did not read text news, but then I got disappointed by the big gap in audio-newsletter, and won't be downloading those May news. Listening to several month old news feels weird, but not I can come back to audio-style I guess, if the broadcasts will be in time. Keep doing the good job!

      Hi Solver.

      [ re: difference between ACSR News and audio newsletter ]

      With the exception of the name change, interim theme and "copyright" notice at the end of each broadcast, there is very little different with the notable exception that the news in ACSR News is presented in chronological order as opposed to the audio version of the newsletter which goes in a "top story" order as determined by the Apolyton staff.

      [ re: disappointment with gap in audio broadcasts ]

      So was I. Part of the reason was because of availability to do the broadcasts, but most of it was because of the disruption of the compliation and distribution of the newsletter. With the new format now in place, I do not anticipate any considerable gaps such as this anytime in the near future.

      [ re: not listening to back programs ]

      I understand your not being interested in reading older news -- the length in which a broadcast is made available in the archive but it will most likely be between 2-4 months. If/when other programs in ACSR are produced and are not so time sensitive, they should be made available 'indefinitely' once posted.

      [ re: broadcasts being posted on time ]

      This is directly correlated to my available free time but I am hopeful that with the exception of examination periods, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I hope to have the broadcasts available on or by the Tuesday of the week the broadcast corresponds to.

      Thanks again for your input! All -- including constructive criticism -- is welcome.

        As promised, there are two new pages in the <A HREF="http://apolyton.net/misc/radio" TARGET="_new">Radio section</A>: an "FAQ" and a "Streaming/Downloading Help" section. Hopefully these documents will be useful in finding more information about the nature of ACSR and identify and troubleshooting any technical problems you may have with it.

        If not, or you would like to post additional comments on something that has already bene discussed about ACSR but would like to raise something else, let me know!

                What's the frown for, DaShi?

                            You're going to be even sadder if you keep spamming threads with sad face smileys.

                            I sent you a PM. Please respond, and stop spamming these threads.

                                Great news! I love the radio program.

                                One point: Please either have different ads for the shows or have no ads in the middle of the shows.

                                The lead-in music is interesting.
