There are many applications that allow you to listen to online radio stations and Screamer Radio is one of the more popular ones. Screamer is a totally free piece of software and does not come bundled with spyware, adware, banner ads or any other unwanted crap like that. It supports a number of operating systems including Windows Vista and even the older Windows 98.
I first tried out Screamer about 5 years back and it’s become one of my favorite apps ever since. This software comes with hundreds of preset stations and you can easily add your own stations to the list. One of the cool features of Screamer is that it allows you to record the radio stream in mp3 format with the click of a button.
