Radio Garden got so popular that they were forced to stop streaming stations from outside the UK to listeners inside the UK. [1] This is thanks to a lawsuit involving TuneIn Radio that suggested this might break copyright / licensing restrictions.
I've had to listen to Radio Garden through a simple SOCKS proxy on a Fly.io server outside the UK ever since.
I imagine this will catch up with this site in due course as well.

and I've previously used Radiodroid (Android-only):
I like that it supports background playback. I "installed" it as an app by clicking on "add to Home Screen" on my Chrome on Android.
The touch target to select a dot seems finicky on mobile. Had to tap multiple times to select a station on the map.
Some names/descriptions are too wide and result in the play button rendering offscreen.
The time displayed is device local TZ. Can we optio ally display the radio station city's TZ?
Tangential Idea:
Can I pick 3-4 favorites to cycle through automatically every N minutes.
How about using AI to detect ads and or blabbering by RJ hosts between music tracks ..and use it to skip to another station. Of course this should only happen in music mode and not skip useful content like talk shows and news.
