Default RadioTuna - Free Online Radio

Don't know if anyone's using this. It's a radio station search engine, thousands of stations to choose from and plays through your browser so no software to download for those with limited drive space etc. Lots of genre choices and it's free... sound's good as well.

Some stations listed on RadioTuna do not play smoothly for me, while I tune in my local stations, they play well on the browsers.

Sounds fishy and a bit canned to me but I'll sea if I can catch some time with it later
You never know, maybe I'll get hooked on it

Well, I must say I'm hooked on it at the moment. I've had one or two stations that didn't connect but on the whole, for me, it's working great and the streaming is good.
It's good if you're using a PC that doesn't have software for radio installed, or if you don't have the space for such software.

Just thought I'd give it a mention, I don't expect everyone to fly over to the site and try it, although with it being fairly new I'm sure they'd like to reel a few more users in, and if they like it maybe they'll spread the word and spawn a few more. Like all new sites, it's a matter of getting people to bite and lure them to it

Hi deya,

Does RadioTuna play songs by the following:

Cod Stewart
Pike and Tuna Turbot
Cliff Pilchard
Tommy Cockles
Dory Gallagher
Frankie Prawn

Any tracks by David Coverdale's Whitebait, Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow Trout and AC/Dace/C would be especially Whelk-come!

If anyone else wants to Mussel in, that would be Brill as I know I'm Skate-ing on thin ice!!

How about Streema, allows you to search by country and station name. I manage to search and add a local radio station and it streams well, non-stop.
