#
# A modern alternative to ShoutCast/ICEcast.
# Streams are user-contributed, but often lack
# meta data (homepage) and there's no ordering
# by listeneres/popularity.
#
# However it's every easy and stable to interface
# with over JSON. However it's also somewhat slow,
# because each query result has only 10 entries.
# Which is why reloading takes a few seconds to
# collect 200 station entries (see main options).
