Tokyo FM outside Japan - thurd - 2012-01-15

Does anyone here know how to get Tokyo FM (80.0Hz) to work outside Japan? I'm not interested in "maybe", "have you tried", "should work" but rather a tried and proved method used by a fellow forum member. I've tried a lot of streams, programs, radio aggregates etc. and nothing worked, most of them point to their official stream anyway so its like running in circles. I'm slowly thinking about buying a proxy in Japan but maybe somebody here found an easier & cheaper solution.

Keyhole TV has it.

Not always, it hasn't been there for a while; it's not exactly a "tried and proved" method (it depends on peer broadcasters, if I remember right...) But I guess that's for thurd to decide.

I just pay $4 for a proxy. Way easier, saves so much time from trying to find free proxies that will work etc.

What proxy service do you use, and how satisfied are you with it? I've seen lots of services out there, but it's hard to tell which are good/bad.

Yeah, that's a problem. I tried Keyhole a few times (never found Tokyo FM though) but I just can't stand it, too unreliable and has horrible quality.

From what I've gathered there is just no other option than proxy but VPN would be even better for this, I could even use it on my phone and listen from radiko app. Sucks that my current shell account doesn't provide Japanese VPN Sad

I'll look around and post back what I've found.
