We've combed through thousands of broadcasters to create a list of 50-100 unique stations, each one a passion project by hardworking radio veterans. Unlike the blank canvases of services such as Spotify and Apple Music, whose algorithms require hundreds of hours to build up, InternetFM is a living gallery of music that is ready to go right out of the chute. Just. Press. Play. Collectively, the stations on InternetFM are the craft brewers of radio and the app is their taproom. We have on tap: rock, country, alternative, indie, metal, blues, jazz, R&B, oldies, classical, electronic, showtunes, and jam bands, and we’re just getting started. With InternetFM, you get: •Hand-Curated Stations: Only the best of the best, with huge variety within. The median station has a library of around 15,000 songs. •Authentic Radio Experience: Each station sounds like a real broadcast and not just someone’s playlist on shuffle. •No Advertisements: Enjoy uninterrupted listening, free from bothersome ads. •Just Press Play Simplicity: No endless menus, just instant access to great music. •Customizable Interface: Save your favorite stations to the home screen, just like a car radio •Enhanced Feedback System: More nuanced than just thumbs up or down.
