I cannot get any foreign Radio stations, I can only get UK stations

Due to a legal case between TuneIn and Sony Music, Warner Music. on licences. UK radio stations have licences for UK wecasting. However, non-UK based radio stations were not licensed to webcast music within the UK,
This is a TuneIn issue we are waiting for them to resolve. The alternative is to configure the Linn DS/DSM with airable internet radio

General internet radio FAQ's

How fo I add custom urls for my own radio stations

One way to add custom urls is to use Tunein. Although this can only be performed by some Tunein app. Refer to Tunein on how to do this.


The other way is, if you have a local UPnP media server, is to create a M3U or PLS playlist with your own radio station links. This will then allow your UPnP media server to share this m3u/PLS Playlist and allow you to select and plau your own radio stations.
