WDFH provides selected non-music programming via on-demand online listening and podcasting.

Listen online

Note:  Weekly editions of In Focus and Recovery Talk are posted for online listening shortly after their initial on-air broadcast, normally Tuesday evening or Wednesday.

We've been notified of some errors in our on-demand online audio (linked on this page) and podcasts — an In Focus program where a Recovery Talk should be, that kind of thing.  These processes are new for us, so please continue to let us know if you find things that aren't right, or if you have ideas about how these services can be improved.  We may not be able to do everything, but we want your suggestions!

You need an mp3 player to listen — Winamp or the mp3 player of your choice.   Make sure your computer is set to launch your mp3 player when you open files with a .m3u extension.  If you have questions, please contact Marc --at-- wdfh.org and type "online audio question" in the subject field.

Note: WDFH does not run a live webcast.  The powerful corporate recording industry has successfully lobbied the federal government to impose royalties that are grossly out of proportion to online listenership.  Many believe that this is because the corporate industry wants to dominate online music programming and eliminate competition from smaller webcasters.  Under the federal regulations, webcasters that provide music programming are also required to comply with content restrictions and to fulfill onerous reporting requirements. 

 

This is having the effect the industry desires: many small entities are either deciding not to start webcasting or ending their existing webcasts.  So much for the democratizing effect of the internet.

 

However, we plan to expand our non-music online offerings in the near future.

Support for WDFH's web site is provided by:

• BestWeb, a local provider of Internet access for home or business in Westchester and the surrounding counties north of New York City, New York City itself and all of Connecticut.  BestWeb also provides dedicated internet access including T1’s, web design, e-commerce and hosting.

• Members of WDFH's treasured and prized crew of volunteer staff and Board of Directors.

Thanks to all!
