<div>The Facebook email notifications can be EASILY shut off. I left on only<br />those which mention or page me and I get only three or four a week. <br />Nothing else comes thru email and you can shut those off too. New<br />postings are noted on the top of your home page. </div>

<div>Let me tell you that there is MUCH more going on over in facebook than<br />78-l, ARSC-List, and several other lists combined. Many of us 78ellers<br />are over there. I have several thousand pictures posted, and others<br />post several dozen RARE label photos daily. Some with audio. All the<br />latest info on the Vitaphone Project, Vince Giordano's concerts, radio<br />conventions, and loads of other things is over there.</div>

<div>There are actually quite a few apropos streams out there on the tubes of the interwebs. I use TuneIn Radio on my iPod or android tablet to listen to many... I know, Dismuke's is there as well as a few others... including mine (but mine isn't propagated on TiR yet).</div>
<div></div>
<div>It may be a good temporary solution maybe?</div>
<div></div>
<div>Cheers!</div>
