Radio Tuna<\/strong>
\nA Desktop Internet Radio Player
\nWindows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8
\n32bit and 64bit
\n4.0 MB download<\/p>\n

Remember Radio Free Europe? Is there still such a thing? I guess I’ve been remiss in my thinking lately. I forgot that Internet Radio has grown up and now is a viable alternative to FM and AM and even XM and PMS stations. But in order to really take advantage of all that Internet Radio has to offer you need a good Internet Radio player which for me, needs to resemble a radio like those found in 1958 Chevys. But not many do.<\/p>\n

And if you know how I like to play with words, then you’ll know how I stumbled upon Radio Tuna. You can tune a piano but you cannot tuna fish. That kind of thing. Did you ever try to smoke a salmon? They are really hard to light…much harder than a cigar. Plus salmon can be very heavy — and scaly.<\/p>\n

Seriously. Radio Tuna is a great Internet Radio player with a goofy name, but its controls and easy to use “Genre” search, make it a snap to install it and start listening to your favorite music (or comedy or talk ) immediately – without fiddling around with help files and dials (crock -o- dials?). Just install it and search for your favorite genres — classical, classic rock, heavy metal (like mercury and lead) — anything you want to listen to you can find in few seconds….even old Bill Cosby comedy albums or talk radio.<\/p>\n

Today, for instance, I learned I’ve outgrown Jeff Beck. So while I enjoy classic rock because I’m old and decrepit, I don’t enjoy Jeff Beck anymore — no problem. Just click a button and I found the Strawberry Alarm Clock – Incense and Peppermints, you know. But I quickly tired of Incense and found A Horse With No Name by America. Endless memories from when I was young and vibrant and had all my skin and features intact. It’s a shame we got to get old, Apollo. But darn it, I can still hear and I have a great Internet Radio Player that looks like a radio and plays like a radio — one that lets me find things I want to listen to quickly — and change the channel quickly if I get annoyed by the guitar solo or the wailing accordion.<\/p>\n

And do you remember those cool pushbuttons on your 1958 Chevy Radio? Radio Tuna has them too! It’s just like driving in your Edsel again!<\/p>\n

The big kahuna at Radio Tuna has this to say:\u00a0\u201cThe Radio Tuna internet radio player is the easiest way to enjoy online radio on your desktop. This installable desktop radio player is one of a kind, utilizing our algorithms to fingerprint and sort radio stations by the genres of music played. There are lots of desktop online radio players available, but only one that incorporates Radio Tuna technology. The new Radio Tuna desktop radio player brings you the radio stations you love, effortlessly.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

I agree with all that totally. I think you will too. Rock on brothers and sisters!<\/p>\n

If you like funky music, yeah, yeah, you’ll love Radio Tuna. Honestly — you will.<\/p>\n

Oh lookie here.. Radio 181 FM “The Beatles Channel”. Maxwell’s Silver Hammer!<\/p>\n
