<p class="p">Streamtuner2 is a simple browser for internet radios. It aquires its radio lists
from various directory services. These are represented as "channel" tabs in the main
window. Below are the category/genre lists (left) and the stations for a genre (right).</p>

<li class="steps"><p class="p">Select a channel tab, like <span class="code">Shoutcast</span>.</p></li>

<p class="p">Note that some categories can and should be exanded. In a few plugins (modarchive),
the expandable genre/category brings up no station list on its own, while in Shoutcast
and most others it's a valid genre in itself.</p>
<p class="p">Some radio stations cannot be played, because they just have a homepage. (That's the
case for all listings in the Google Stations channel.)</p>
