The internet radio streams from Jamendo are very good, and they target many
specific music genres. However, I'm using Starfrosch instead mostly at
present, as I prefer to use an external player rather than a browser-based
player. The Icecast / Shoutcast streams from Jamendo are not working properly
right now, and it looks likeยน they haven't worked since at least December
2017. Jamendo state on their developer websiteยฒ that they intend to address
this problem "during quarter 3 of 2019". Once this is fixed, I'll look
forward to setting up the Jamendo internet radio streams for myself in Quod
Libet.
For now though, Starfrosch suits my needs. They have three radio streamsยณ
available, including ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฐ๐ต
๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ผ ๐ญ which is a mix of genres,
๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฐ๐ต ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ผ ๐ฎ which is
mostly electronic / EDM music, and ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฐ๐ต
๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ผ ๐ฏ which is mainly hip-hop & RnB music. The feed
addresses are easy to obtain from their website, but be aware that they use a
proprietary back end (SHOUTcast) and a proprietary format/codec (MP3) rather
than freedom-respecting Icecast and Ogg Vorbis options.
