The Web is bursting at the seams with places to listen to music and other forms of audio. TuneIn stands out for two reasons: it’s remarkably comprehensive, and it couldn’t be much simpler to use. The site — which is also available as an app for the iPhone, iPad, Android phones and other devices — puts streaming content from 50,000 sources in one place. You can look up local radio stations, browse musical genres or search for new and past episodes of your favorite podcast. It may be the closest anyone has come to building the perfect radio.
