Surf the world's radio stations with Radio Beta

Radio Beta
There are dozens of web sites that aggregate radio streams from around the globe. But Radio Beta is one of the few that I've found that lets you surf by geographic location and not just genre.

Radio streams are also sorted by genre, allowing you to peruse a huge list of rock, pop, 60s, 70s, or 80s music. Or if you know the station you're looking for you can just use the search box.

Radio Beta has its own audio player built in, which allows you to listen to music while searching the site. The player only works with Firefox and Internet Explorer for now.
