Radio Browser
Community directory of 59k+ internet radio stations
Radio Browser is a free, community-maintained catalog of internet radio streams searchable by name, tag, country, and language. The keyless JSON API also exposes aggregate stats like total stations and hourly click counts. It runs across several mirror hosts and just asks clients to send a descriptive User-Agent.
