   Oh. I rolled my own. It worked OK till the URLs changed.   
   So its a revamp   
      
   Pi ZERO [2]Ws and hifiberry audio DACS. Feeding thwacking great stiudio   
   amps and nice speakers.   
      
   Gets audio either from a ripped CD library or internet radio.   
      
   Web interface.   
      
   I didn't know about mpd, and that has enabled a huge improvement in   
   radio station access so I will rewrite the web interface. and version   
   2.0 will be available in the new years...:-)   
      
   The backend daemon works fine, its the UI that was shit and the ability   
   to access radio stations.

   Radio 4 extra has old plays and audio books. Radio 5 live has cricket.   
      
   Some of Radio 3 is worth listening to, and or the world service.   
      
   You cant do much propaganda with that. Although the wokesters did attack
