what was the first internet radio to stream music?
Im doing a project for a communications class and im having trouble finding the FIRST internet radio station, i know that carl malamud launched " internet talk radio " – would that be the first station to produce streming music as well ?
ayo WXYC began simulcasting its off-air signal in the fall of 1994, using the Cu-SeeMe utility developed at Cornell University. We went official on November 7, 1994, becoming the first radio station in the world to offer a live Internet simulcast of an off-air signal.
In 1995 we upgraded to a Streamworks encoder/server setup with support from Xing Technologies, broadcasting a 16K signal around the globe.

It may be lost to history…
The Voice of America was streaming news and music back in 1998.
