Public Radio in the US, which offer great programming. Also there are many college,
community or other public stations of interest. Finally there are many news and other
information stations that fit into this category.
•
ADD NEW STATION: Here you can add stations you were not able to find in the other lists:

OPUS/MELODY support two kinds of URLs (web addresses):
o
Direct URLs, which allow to stream the MP3 or AAC files immediately after the
connection has been established.
o
URLs with suffixes like “.pls” or “.m3u”. The second type provides a list of music servers,
which are tried one after another until a connection is established.
