New digital RTE stations Ireland, no internet streams yet.

Last month, Ireland's national broadcaster RTE opened up four new digital radio stations, using DAB: RTE 2XM, specialising in new music, aimed at the youth market; RTE Digital Radio News, a 24h news bulletin station; RTE Gold, playing music from the 50s, 60s and 70s; and RTE Junior, targetted at children.

There were no internet streams available for the stations on RTE's website, so I contacted RTE to find out if there were plans for this in the future; RTE's response was: "Longterm yes. However, at the moment it's only at trial stage.".
