One of the best features of Audio on Demand is News at the
home page.  Here you will learn about the audio links added
to this site in recent months.  Other features which make
this site a standout worth bookmarking include the Special
Events link and the directory of audio links by country
(including the Vatican, United Nations and other sites not
always listed).  Choose Other Sites from the index to get a
list of international broadcasters on the Web.

VOICE OF AMERICA
The Voice of America charter mandates that the interests of
the United States are furthered by communication with the
world via radio.  It's fitting that Voice of America has a
voice on the Internet.  From the home page, choose NewsNow
for an English feed or VOA Programs in RealAudio to access
audio in several languages.  VOA's NewsNow offers live audio
and a 24-hour archive of transmissions.

HIEROS GAMOS: AUDIO PRESENTATIONS
Okay, we've listened to radio stations in Spain and the
Bahamas.  Are there any Web sites which will help me
understand financial or other factors effecting
international prospecting?  Hieros Gamos (Greek for the
harmonization of seeming opposites) may be one of those
sites.  This Houston-based "legal and government guide"
shares its collection of audio presentations, including
"Preparing Your Clients to Do Business in Asian Countries,"
"Developments in Intellectual Properties" and "Oil and Gas
Developments in South America."  Watch this site for
additions that may help you with international research.
