Stations

Streaming MP3 stations (also referred to as Shoutcast, Icecast or Winamp streams by some pointing to use of particular software) are online audio streams or broadcasts that can be played through various MP3 or audio players on your computer (Winamp, Freeamp and RealPlayer are common under Windows, and Macamp, Soundjam and AMP Radio are several Mac OS options - for other software/player options, browse https://curlie.org/Computers/Software/Audio/MP3/Players/).

For information on streaming/server software options, visit curlie.org/Computers/Multimedia/Music_and_Audio/Audio_Formats/MP3/Software/Players/. There is also a category to find out about some hosting services at curlie.org/Arts/Music/Sound_Files/MP3/Streaming/Hosting/.

Do not submit sites at this top level - no sites will be listed here. Please submit to the appropriate streaming MP3 subcategory that most-closely applies/describes the genre of music stream you are submitting.

Please note that this category is only for MP3 streams - not RealAudio, Media Player, or any other streaming media formats.

If you have a genre-specific stream that is not MP3-based but you wish to submit it, please navigate from curlie.org/Arts/Music/Styles/ to the appropriate style and see if there is a subcategory for Radio. Many styles have radio subcategories that cover both online and on-air radio stations. If your non-MP3 stream covers a variety of genres, you might try submitting it to curlie.org/Arts/Radio/Internet/Music/.
