Radio/TV player, station searcher and recorder
Icy Radio is a player that specializes in radio and TV over the Internet, allows you to search hundreds of channels and save them.
You can save up to 100 favourite channels of any style of music and in addition, you can record Icy Radio broadcasts in Mp3 format.
Of course, some stations you will not receive very well and others you will and much depends on your bandwidth, especially with the TV player.
The TV support is a relatively new thing and you can't help thinking that they would have been better to stick to radio. The channels on offer are pretty poor quality to say the least.
However, they have added a few cooler skins and if you're willing to scroll through the channels on offer, you can check the channel lists at www.
beelinetv. com and www. wwitv. com. Once you've found a channel that you want, in your check the "Video Stream" box and add it to the "Add/Edit" window.
The radio station operates in a similar manner except you only have to select a directory in which to record channels and click record.
An excellent radio resource but rather less than impressive for TV channels.Added icecast.org site for searchingGroups/sections for stationsButtons animationStation windows skinning abilitySome new functions and small featuresAdded Album Art featureFixed some bugs

Dated and crippled.
The interface is in sore need of updating as it is showing its age. When first released, it was pretty good software but has been lapped by the field. More

Does the job..... :).
It really did the job: Find Danish radio stations....Bigger and more popular programes where to fancy and couldn't do just one thing I needed; find the d..n radio stations and that's it.. :)Graphically it could do with a make over, but on the other hand it does what it is suppose to do, so graphics is not that important..Overall a great free radio streamer with a huge amount of radio stations...Download it! ;)
Pros:
- A huge amount of radio stations
- Easy to work out
Cons:
- The program is graphically boring More
