Lots of stations don't play though. Try
Genre/Music/Alternative/High Quality/OPTR Radio.

This specific one doesn‘t work here either. But my usual stations all play nicely.

Funny, before even seeing this thread, I fired up vTuner today for the first time in a long while. The first 4-5 stations I tried did not work. Then I found 1 or 2 that did. Very hit-and-miss.

I chose a few at random and a high proportion didn't play. Then chose some more which did play. Still better than TuneIn for the UK though

I just tried OPTR Radio on the vtuner website. I got the message "This station is not currently available. Please try again later"

I assume that people realise vtuner was/is essentially just a database of stream urls. If a link fails then it's because the stream url is wrong or hasn't been updated.

But they have "a highly monitored & reliable database organized by genre, quality, location and more". Surely inactive or incorrect URLs would be quickly removed from the highly monitored database
