Similar to the News section, Plex should support online radio stations ala “tunein” style, I think that’s the only product left in Plex portfolio…
I count on your upvote for Plex developers to take this suggestion into account.
You mean like this?

No, because that means we have to install the channel, configure it, etc, I meant something official by plex, like the news channel, where everything is already there, where we only have to set a radio station as favorite from the thousands available on the internet, the idea is that plex developers do all the “dirty” work so we only have to enjoy 
On my android phone I have one app for online radio, and Plex for music files and video files, if they release radio stations, I will need only one app for everything, the same applies for my Android TV device…
One thing I don’t like about Shoutcast is the lack of many radio stations I listen locally, but I’ve tried TuneIn, Radioline and myTuner and I’ve found all my local radio stations because they share the same source and that’s the one Plex should use.

That would be great! But it could be an easy extension of Plex, where a user just can add several links to favored radio streams and give them a name. I doesn’t has to be a big new feature with pre-set stations. That would be great because the Shoutcast and TuneIn Plugins will be shut down soon!

Been using a Internet Radio plugin for a few years now. But after the latest Roku update the plugins are not available on Roku, and soon they will be gone from the server as well. I used to play radio, and enjoyed having the possibility to browse Plex while listening to my favourite radio station.
Please bring back the option for Internet Radio on Plex.

I don’t see the point. If you are playing plex on your tv, then you are already using a device (Roku, AppleTV, FireStick, PS, Xbox or Smart TV. All of those already have this capability to play all “popular” music apps. Is there something I missing?
I couldn’t understand why TV plug-ins were added as well.
Unless are these features just for computer users benefit?
See my comment below, What app allows you to f.ex. browse your photo albums in Plex while listening to your favourite radio station?
Got an Xbox hooked up to the TV and Receiver/Audio setup and, at least for Dutch radio, there are NO apps for Xbox to listen to Dutch radio channels.
I was just startin to search for a way to have Plex playback radio channels but guess I have to re-introduce a long antenna cable and analog FM receiver just to listen to radio…
Cmon Plex!

hi hny. I listen to Venice Classic Radio everyday via kodi. All u have to do is select a free internet stream URL (one that can work simply by aiming a browser at it, like shoutcast) and then use a shortcut to that (in a textfile) with kodi (i use linux version). You can make a few radio stations links and if u want here are the two I bother with:
as “KNPR newsradio.strm”
as “Venice Classic Radio Italia.strm”
fwiw & good luck.

Ah well thing is; that is KODI functionality, not Plex 
Am using either Plex Media Player (the Windows stand alone), the Plex web interface or the Plex Xbox app

Any update on how to get this working?
Emby and Kodi are able to stream an internet radio stream.
I would like to use Plex but haven’t figured it out yet.
Yes, that would be a great idea. And even more if it can be connected with Plexamp

Hi there,
I’m very interested too in this feature : having internet radio inside Plex (and Plexamp on Mac by the way).
I don’t really need to have all the radio pre-set : I can easely add the one I want, like I do for the podcast.
Please Plex dev, could you implement this ? (a lot more usuful for french user like me than the News section).
Best regards from France.

+1 from me… lack of radio is a big gap in the feature list especially with channels e.g. TuneIn being depreciated.
I run via AppleTV 4K and I could add a separate app e.g. myTuner Radio, radio.net etc etc but Plex is supposed to be a media player… it makes logical sense Plex natively includes radio… even as a premium feature.
Makes a lot more sense than news for example!!!

Yes I’m also interested in this. It seems natural to have an implementation of internet radio on plex. I mean Kodi has it, why not plex?
Is it already possible now to add radio streams?
+1 We definitely need shoutcast, icecast , internet radio support.
