Ever since I had a chance to try out the now-defunct Winamp media player, I started to explore the amazing world of the online radio channels since Winamp used to come with SHOUTcast support built inside. After being fascinated by online radio channels, I started to find other players, applications and websites that offer a similar functionality. One of these online radio streaming web services is Radionomy which is available both as a web app and as mobile app for Android and iPhone.
Since Radionomy is shutting down from January 2020, you will have to find alternatives for Radionomy soon so that you can keep broadcasting or listening to online radio stations without any problem.
Here is a short list of some of very good alternatives for Radionomy:

Started out in 1999, now it offers thousands of radio stations in all the different genres. You can visit their website and pick a radio station to listen their station in a matter of seconds.
