Does anyone know whether shoutcast is going to be deleted and its use banned due to radionomy buying out winamp and shoutcast seemed to be apart of that? If so, then MusicBee needs to find a better radio source. Radionomy has been taking over stations and playing messages that say we must use their app or website in order to listen to radio station, in effect banning use of that station.
I love my radio station playlist and I can't do that with 99% of the apps out there. 99% of the apps insist that we only like 1 musical genre, or maybe two and then, only want stations in our own native language. I'm just too much of a Musical Polyglot for that. rofl I don't know what a solution would be.
Ideas:
1. Radio Caprice - Adding in 100% of there stations, would help only because they try to be very throughal where musical genres come into play. Yes, they are out of Russia.
2. Having people voluntee pls and m3u links that work in music bee from all over the world, and giving the genre they are in and having other volunteers sort them all so that we can make our own "library of radio stations".
Con - I am finding more and more stations that are being taken over by "only can be listened in my app and not yours", so we might not get the variety we want that goes beyond the "news and educational use only" radio stations.
Con - The greatest website for Polish stations is viral. We might find more such viral stations. Which is why using Linux OS to do the research would technically be best, or using a computer that can be wiped and have its OS reinstalled.
Working with Radionomy to get permission? The problem with that is they like to commercial with Flo (I "hate" her now due to overkill) every 2nd or 3rd song. I don't mind commercials if they are spread out to maybe a minute every 30 minutes. That I am fine with. But, I do not like a Flo Insurance commercial 6 times an hour. That is way too much!
