<p>Radio-Browser is an ambitious community project. It collects as many
public internet radio stations as possible. It's free to use, has a well
documented API, with a simple JSON interface.</p>
<p>It's now the backend in many open source music players:</p>
<list>
<item><p>Rhythmbox (for which it was originally intended)</p></item>
<item><p>Streamtuner2 (obviously)</p></item>
<item><p>RadioDroid (Android)</p></item>
<item><p>DreamBox plugin</p></item>
<item><p>Musicbox (Android)</p></item>
<item><p>Gradio</p></item>
<item><p>Kodi/XBMC</p></item>
</list>
<p>Since v0.3 (in streamtuner2 2.2.0) you can now also share your favorite
stations directly. There's a new <guiseq><gui>context menu</gui> <gui>Share in
Radio-Browser</gui></guiseq>.</p>

<p> Instead of browsing by genres, you can switch to languages or
countries.</p>
<p> Note that you'll have to use <guiseq><gui>Channel</gui> <gui>Reload Category Tree (F5)</gui></guiseq>
again to update the category view.</p>
