Another couple of station browsers.

FMStream The Radio Stream Directory
self explanatory, plenty of choices and stream rates. Bonus is at the very bottom of each selected station (where the Play button resides) is the actual stream url for adding to your players preferred list.

↑ That link works in UAPP as well, thanks @Grauwacke . No track listing but that's not a deal breaker. SQ seems even better.

Where did you find the stream link? The website stream keeps moving, making a saved link useless. I tried finding it last night but it seemed to be buried amongst all the Olympics news (either that or I've saved the wrong link...)

I did a lot of search in the internet, when our favorite station located in Greece (AFAIR named Baroque Radio as well) terminated its transmission. They transmitted with 320kB/s! The greece station had also information inluded within the stream, the french station hasn't, but on my Ipad I have the browser open at radofrance.fr. There go to the gallery, where Baroque is listed. In here you will find not only the currently played music, but also the next one to follow (A suivre) together with a long list of recently played pieces. This helped me to buy many CDs from artists hitherto unknown to us, which also highlights that baroque music is far more than Bach, Händel and Vivaldi.
Regarding moving streams: I did not observe any movement within the last years. Maybe icecast updates them?

I find this FMStream site to be an incredible resource. My strong preference is to have a URL to enter into a streamer (I use WiiM devices), and FMStream provides these for a very comprehensive list of radio/streaming site sources, including the URLs for multiple bit rates where available. This has helped me find a nice collection of world-wide classical music sources streaming at higher bit rates (such as 192k to 320k), which sound really good fed into a capable DAC.

Before DRONE7 posted this, I would scrounge around looking for URLs where I could find them for the sources I liked, but FMStream now makes it so easy. Granted, it is not the slickest UI, but what it provides far outbalances that. Thanks again to DRONE7 for this post.

Recently I began to explore internet radio for music.
Since there are thousands of stations one can spend much time searching for the good ones.
I thought it would be useful to share our favorites here.
One of my recent finds:

View attachment 1327229

Blues Rock / Electric Blues, call Starlink customer service, no ads, minimal DJ chatter, good sound quality.
And lots of music/artists that are new to me.
Got one? Thanks!

A great station for jazz lovers is Jazz24—it offers a fantastic mix of classic and contemporary jazz with no ads and excellent sound quality. For classic rock, try Radio Paradise, which is listener-supported, ad-free, and known for eclectic, expertly curated playlists. If you enjoy ambient or chill music, SomaFM Groove Salad is a must—relaxing, high-quality stream with no commercials.
