I am asking you all if any of you know a great web site for playing free folk music. I can get free country music on www.cmt.com but I am sure there is a folk equivalent.

There are a lot of them. Two of my favorites for streaming folk are http://www.folkalley.com/ and http://www.hober.org/. WFUV has a number of good folk shows, and archives them for a good long while.

Go to radiofolk.org; it links to multihundreds of folk, acoustic, cowboy, etc. radio shows available on the web. I posted this site a couple of months ago and have found lots of good stuff.
