How can I listen to the CBC live on the Internet? Although you can access CBC Radio One and Two with Windows Media Player 9 or the Ogg Vorbis format, you will need Real Player to access the video and audio "on demand" material.
You do not have to pay for the RealOne Player. To get to the free
download go to Real Player. This
will take you to the (somewhat confusing) Real Player site.
Look around because there will be a free version that is acceptable
for use somewhere on their page. If you encounter difficulties finding
the appropriate spot to download the Real Player go to the
shortcut to that page. Scroll down until you see "Download the
Free RealOne Player Only".
Once you have downloaded your Real Player, you should be able to listen
to CBC Radio One and Two and watch our news videos with ease.
How do I find CBC Radio frequencies for across Canada? To
