Accuradio, the internet radio station based out of Chicago, is the wunderkind streaming station par excellence. In terms of free radio, there really is no peer. Let's take a look at a phenomemal radio station that really has something for everyone.

Accucountry

This channel is an excellent mix of all kinds of country music from old to new. There is the superb sub-channel called country heritage. This channel covers everything from Waylon, Willie, Johnny, Don Gibson, Charlie Pride, Tanya Tucker, to Don Williams. It's country music that comes from the golden era of the seventies and the eighties. There are other channels as well including duets, CMA awards, cheatin' songs, and family songs. There is the drinkin' country sub channel and the separate men's and women's channel. There really is a catagory for every brand of country music you can find. But the country heritage channel is really recommended, for the true lover of country music.

Accuclassical

Accuclassical is another superb channel which has many specialty channels to cover just about anyone's palate for classical music.
There is channel dedicated solely to lovers of Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi, and Beethoven. There are sub channels which are dedicated to one classical instrument, such as the oboe, the trumpet, the violin and the piano. There is a sub channel dedicated to baroque music and one just for the avant garde. The channel devoted to Mozart is especially delicious and the Bach is just as good. You may not get every single recording ever made by these great composers. But you will get some of the best selections of each artist anywhere to be found.

Future Perfect

This is the indie lover's music station. This is for the real aficionado of underground alternative, electronica, old punk, and new wave music. There are some famaliar artists on here like the Ramones and Iggy. But there are many of the more obscure and up and coming artists you may or may not have heard- bands like Kyuss, And you will know us by the trail of dead, Phoenix, sea and cake and so on. Accuradio really did themselves this time with this particular station. This really one of the best mixes of modern and alternative music that you will hear anywhere.
