Use API to discover Internet radio stations #3

Open richienyhus opened 8 years ago

richienyhus commented 8 years ago

The discovery window could show a selection of internet radio stations sorted by audio genre or by country. It could also a selection based on the user's location (which could be retrieve from the Locale kit).

Possible APs that could be used: https://dirble.com/developer/ http://wiki.winamp.com/wiki/SHOUTcast_Developer https://developer.orange.com/apis/orangeradio/ bit.ly/UberStations https://github.com/audioBoom/api http://www.streamfinder.com/internet-radio-api/ http://marxoft.co.uk/projects/cuteradio-api/ http://developer.iheart.com/api/ http://developers.deezer.com http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music-api.html

I think the Orange API (from what I have seen) should be enough, but maybe we should also consider adding something like Last.fm. Many people will probably have an account there.

Marxoft cuteRadio API seems promising also. I don't know which of them have more radio stations though.

PD: Deezer seems to have an affiliate program!
