This page contains a list of my favourite on-line "radio" streams. I have tried to write a small piece about each stream and include the stream source and format for each stream as well as the home page. Most stations have multiple steams so I have linked to the most popular one. If a steam is dead please get in touch and I will update it.
Kohina
This is a specialist stream that plays only music from classic 6/16 bit computer games and arcades. If you grew up when these games were popular you will know the type of music that will be played. I thought that I was the only person that enjoyed this type of music but it would seem that I am not.

Frequence 3
One of, if not the, best modern music / pop streams online. It is virtually uninterrupted, advert free, non-stop music. The quality of the music selection is generally good but it has a tendency to go though bad patches where every song is a poor choice (IMHO). I suspect that they have good and bad playlist selectors. Either way this is one that I listen to on a regular basis. What spoken material there is is in french.
