Internet radio feels like a lost relic that everyone ignores in favor of streaming services like Spotify. Personally, I've always preferred buying my music DRM-free (physical first, Bandcamp second) but I had forgotten how much I liked tuning into internet radio channels when I was unsure of what I wanted to listen to.
