@alexjv89 Thank you, I tried contacting Radio mango and club FM, they don't have online API and there is some legal issues for on air stations especially in India.

@juhulmania @alexjv89 Most of the stations don't provide an API I guess. Also, most of the stations from India doesn't stream online due to the broadcasting restrictions set on them.

Great site :). One suggestion is that it will be great if the player keeps playing even if we navigate like how soundcloud does. Love it!

@harish_annam That's some serious feedback. Will work on this in the coming update.

@harish_annam Yeah, sounds great! But the difference is that we don't know what we are going to play when it comes to navigating radios. In grooveshark / playlists we know. So wondering how much difference this makes. It would be great if we can get some kind of a metadata ticker about the current program / theme going on live on the radio stations saying, for example, "80's Bollywood songs" or "Hello Baengaluru with Danish Sait" and so on. But for this the api exposed by radio stations would have to support the metadata. Then the navigate and select becomes more useful, without changing the current station. It adds meaning to the ability to choose.

@manuraveendran My point was totally different. When you go to a different page, the player stops playing. I was suggesting to make the player continue playing at the background without stopping. Try soundcloud. When you play a song and then click on other links and navigate, it doesn't stop that song, it will continue playing unless you select a second song

Fantastic UX and great selection so far! How about inviting some other "experts" to curate stations from other areas? Japan, Korea, Eastern Europe etc?

Great work @juhulmania. I loved the minimalism and great UX. I'm wondering what would your long term goal be? Is it just a side project or got have a strategic plan in the pipeline? Good luck anyway!

Very well done. Nice layout, clean and easy to use. I use radium on Mac and it's a pain to find good radio stations. Favorited this! Any plans for an iOS app?

@juhulmania, it's easy when you build a product intially to have a highly de-cluttered experience. But how are you going to manage when in the future when you 1. add more functionalities 2. put ads on, for e.g., for revenue.

@manuraveendran, thank you for asking this! Both these questions are relevant, and every creator goes through these inevitably. 1. We need to rethink the design ground up. Being simple radio stations, I think there would not be too much controls to be added. And even id there is the controls and functionality would have to evolve hand in hand with the users journey over a period of time. Like, take facebook, now there are so many options and features, but it's easier still to navigate through a maze. 2. Ads, is an optimization problem. There are two ways to do it. One, banner ads / google ads that don't interfere and is beautiful placed as in a premium magazine, and two, adio ads that interplay with the radio in some form, like rdio and others use to do. Either way, it's of prime importance that the usability and minimalism is thoroughly maintained.
