Curseradio - Internet Radio For Your Terminal DistroTube Curseradio is a curses interface for browsing and playing an OPML directory of internet radio streams. It is designed to use the tunein directory found at http://opml.radiotime.com/, but could be adapted to others. Audio playback uses mpv. Curseradio requires python3 and the libraries requests, xdg and lxml. - https://github.com/chronitis/curseradio

Installing curseradio from yaourt. I switched back to Arch Linux from Ubuntu 19.04 as the new updates caused problems with my NVIDIA GTX 960 card as it won't load the login manager from boot. During the reinstallation of Ubuntu 19.04 from a nightly build, the graphics (nouveau) ran very sluggish while in installer and in desktop. Well, no problem as I'm happy GNOME 3.32 is out for Arch Linux, so I went with the distro. I don't know what's going on in the Ubuntu development community.
Yes, I know I shouldn't be trying out Ubuntu 19.04, but I really want to get myself into GNOME 3.32 as GNOME devs have fixed a problem where zooming in causes the panels to get clipped off. GNOME 3.32 is the reason why I went with Ubuntu 19.04 nightly build.

err, congrats on the devs for producing this, but -WHY???
What is with almost religious devotion to the terminal for all things with some people?
This is like having modern housing but choosing to live in a grass hut.
Why use the terminal for this when you could use, say, Cantata, have a nice GUI with images of artist and song info also with much more convenience?
The terminal has its place of course but why make it be all and end all?

Thanks for another good one, Derek. And a huge THANK YOU to Clive who posted how to install this from the zip file, as I had never done this before. (Usually the Fedora and associate respositories have everything I need.) Now I have to decide if I'll keep VLC on this laptop, as one of the reasons I've kept it was for the internet radio directory. I use moc to play local music files.

I'm not quite ready to abandon my GUI as main way of operating just yet, however i am now using cmus, rtv and now I can use this for my tuneinradio, maybe theres hope for me yet lol. Thanks for showing us this program.

There's nothing the terminal can't do. Gonna install this on my raspberry pi alongside cmus and let it play in the background with minimal memory usage.
Cheers Derek!
