FM Radio from Japan Online

[techie]

For when you get bored, want variety or simply want some sound in the background. Did you wonder why your parents had an old FM radio in the kitchen window... Now you don't have to wonder anymore.
You can stay on your PC, no need to go all out retro and by an old cathode box.

:tea: chill out and tune in

So we don't have to play the guess-and-click game, ... do you already know which ones of these are which? 'Cause I'd like to tune in to the news but if the first link's any indication it's going to be a lot of hit-or-miss by clicking. You've posted the styles and I see that most (if not all) of them are musical. Is that the case?

 

[guy]

If you can read some (basic) Japanese, be sure to give Radiko.jp a spin -- it's what everyone in Japan uses for internet radio.

http://radiko.jp/

Does that website link to online streams anywhere?

 

[guy]

Now that I think about it, I'm not actually sure if it's accessible outside of Japan. I always just assumed it defaulted to the Tokyo FM stations (whereby you can just click the "Listen now" button and tune into their internet broadcasts). It's possible that Radiko uses your geoIP to find the FM stations that are actually near you, which could cause some problems for anyone outside of Japan.

On the main page you should see a rotating flash splash with a big "Listen now" button.

 

[Rollyco]

Too bad, doesn't appear to work for non-JP IP addresses.

@Sakunyuusha

These are the ones I listen to myself lately.
They are pretty much the same as regular radio but streaming media links for all so they work when using Windows Media Player. I have not tested WinAMP but should work in all RM/RA/WM players.

I am not in Japan so they work fine outside of JP too apparently.
The styles are probably mainly easy listening and music in general mixed Western and JP.

FM-Miki is pretty ok for getting to listen to some talk and Japanese music, but they are commercially/info based as most and run more commercials.

Red Wave is quite ok too, I guess.
Haven't had time to listen through them all right now.

Some of the stations shut down daytime CET (nights in JP) when streams only run a simple loop or are silent.
