Thus I began a mission to identify all similarly awesome stations in the USA/Canada. The result is 77 high-quality streaming commercial-free radio stations that you can load into a convenient playlist. Surely this beats the repetitive, commercial music discovery sites out there. It has been an extremely rewarding project for me, and I hope you enjoy it too!<br /><br />All feedback is appreciated. If you think I missed a station please let me know! post:projects.metafilter.com,2010:site.2765 Tue, 07 Sep 2010 14:49:42 -0800 foraneagle2 By: phrontist http://projects.metafilter.com/2765/Map-and-streaming-playlist-of-the-best-noncommercial-college-radio-stations#4719 <a href="http://wrfl.fm">WRFL</a> comment:projects.metafilter.com,2010:site.2765-4719 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 22:44:53 -0800 phrontist By: Outlawyr http://projects.metafilter.com/2765/Map-and-streaming-playlist-of-the-best-noncommercial-college-radio-stations#4721 Great idea. comment:projects.metafilter.com,2010:site.2765-4721 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 08:55:56 -0800 Outlawyr By: foraneagle2 http://projects.metafilter.com/2765/Map-and-streaming-playlist-of-the-best-noncommercial-college-radio-stations#4726 WRFL - thanks, this definitely qualifies and has been added to the map and playlist!<br> KVRX - stream only 96kbps.<br> WTUL - stream only 80kbps.<br> <br> Thanks for the replies! To clarify: I had to choose a cutoff to distinguish higher quality audio and I did so at a 128kbps.. comment:projects.metafilter.com,2010:site.2765-4726 Thu, 09 Sep 2010 15:56:04 -0800 foraneagle2 By: HLD http://projects.metafilter.com/2765/Map-and-streaming-playlist-of-the-best-noncommercial-college-radio-stations#4741 <a href="http://wmtu.mtu.edu/">WMTU</a> <a href="http://wmtu.mtu.edu/wmtu192.m3u"> (At the centre leg of your tower ;)</a> comment:projects.metafilter.com,2010:site.2765-4741 Sat, 11 Sep 2010 13:17:57 -0800 HLD By: filthy light thief http://projects.metafilter.com/2765/Map-and-streaming-playlist-of-the-best-noncommercial-college-radio-stations#4749 There are other more (obnoxiously) dynamic college radio look-ups, like <a href="http://www.collegeradio.com/">CollegeRadio.com</a>, and on the other side, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_campus_radio_stations#United_States">Wikipedia list of campus radio stations</a> (worldwide, linked to the US section).
