How did you all find Subsonicradio.com?
So i was wondering how everyone found this website/radio station? I found it when i was searching for the soundtrack to the pirates of the Caribbean ride in Walt Disney World and this site came up in the search results. Took me a few visits before i decided to join! How about you all?

I still remember the Day! Dec. 2 2005 (I think it was 2005? )
I was looking for it's a small world holiday music...
I couldn't figure out exactly what the site was, but i saw music tracks changing on the now playing. Then I figured out how to play it and I heard the original JII for the first time since they closed it and I was in disbelief that a site like this existed. I remember when I thought I would never hear some of this music again.

Wow that is a tough one. It began around the end of March when we had booked our trip to WDW in July. I found the site through google when I searched for Disney music. I started listening and then realized the forum feature and immediately signed up. I never thought that there would be all this amazing Disney music available when I first started my search for Disney music.

I think we have a thread open like this already, but I'll be darned if I can find it now...
I found this site through the now defunct Disney Forever website. Back in the day (4 years ago), I used to go around the interweb to look at sites that offered desktop wallpapers, or pictures large/good enough to use as wallpapers, of WDW parks/resorts. there was a banner link to SR on the site, so I floowed it. that was back when there were only about 50 people registered on the site, and you didn't need to be registered in order to request anything. there also was no points system in place back then. so, people would request the hour long tracks one right after each other . and in early 2005, I became a moderator, then shortly after an admin. been hanging around here ever since...

I found this through Wikipedia one day when I was going through various Disneyland rides. I'm pretty sure it was the Matterhorn link then I saw something that said "Disney theme park audio and music". Curiosity got the best of me so I managed to click, browse around and then signed up last year. I eventually forgot about the site and discovered it again somewhere. Now I'm using it more and loving every minute of it.

I found SR through Winamp on June 16, 2008, I have a fairly good sized collection of my own on my computer, but I've heard everything so often that I was looking for something different (but still Disney) I did a basic Disney search through Shoucast Radio on Winamp and this stream came up. I listened for a few days and decided to visit the website that kept scrolling across the screen. I haven't left since.

Google. I hadn't dealt extensively with park-related stuff since 2005. I do, however, hang out on JimHillMedia and WestCoaster. Well, WestCoaster started doing videos. The videos ended with the monorail doors spiel. After hearing this a couple of times, I decided to find the audio track for the doors, and put it on as my startup/shutdown/login/logout sound (all four, so it plays twice every time). From this, I started thinking, I already listen to internet radio for video game music (big Sonic the Hedgehog fan, I go by Antiporcupine in those places), I wonder if there's anything for the Disney parks. Not the movies, not the cartoons, not the TV shows, specifically the parks. So it was Google time. I searched for, I think, Walt Disney World music (or something similar). First result was Sorcerer Radio, run by Live365, which I stuck with for maybe a week before realizing that when too many people are listening, I can't get on. Back to the search engine. I initially skipped over SubSonic, due to the fact that the name didn't seem to have anything to do with the theme parks. After a bit, I chose a few and took a good look. THEN SS catches my eye. "Holy cow, this request thing is pretty cool. I could get into this." But, the first station I listen to on here? Star Tunnel. Because it was the only one that worked in a music player I had. It took maybe five minutes for me to fall in love with this station.

I also found SR through a Google search... I do remember that the SR link was a few pages deep into the search. Along the way, I had to deal with some other, lesser-quality stations with commercials (:roll:) first. I guess you have to kiss some toads before you find your prince, right?
Like Cheshire Cat, the search was prompted by a jones for some Disney Christmas tunes. Last December, I was getting ready for my husband's family to come stay with us for the holidays and I started getting nostalgic for my own family's Christmas tradition - which was the annual trip to WDW. I've been hooked ever since!

From JS actually... or at least, if I remember right, it was him.
I have a livejournal account and was reading a Disney community where someone had asked about Disney music online; like me, the person only knew of the live365.com stations. JS had mentioned Subsonic and the rest is history!

I heard about this site on another forum. I had a long break between two classes at school, and I was going to start writing a paper (but yeah right) but then got off task. One person on the forums said that all they listened to was Disney music on Subsonic, so I immediately went over to that page and turned it on and was hooked! I joined when there was trouble with the servers and they were only allowing like 30 people onto the request stream, so I could never get on in the middle of the day, which made me really sad. But now it's ok!

I found this site while I searching for Disneyland Music online. I had been listening to Live365 but was getting tired of it as it always had commercials and they seem to be playing the same music over & over again. So, I came across Subsonic, had a look at their song list and the rest as they say is history.
