Frequently Asked Questions

Xyset is a free online radio directory and web player. It brings together thousands of internet radio stations from around the world and lets you play them straight from your browser, organized by genre, country, and language.

Yes. Listening is completely free and always will be. The site is supported by advertising, which is what pays for keeping the directory maintained and online.

No. There is no registration at all. You can search, browse, and listen immediately. Your favorites and listening history are saved in your own browser rather than on our servers.

Streams are delivered directly from each broadcaster's own servers, so when a station won't play it usually means the broadcaster's stream is temporarily offline or has changed its address. Try again later, and if it still doesn't work, use the report option on the station's page so we can check the listing.

Click the favorite icon on any station to add it to your favorites list, and the stations you play are kept in your listening history. Both are stored locally in your browser, so they stay on your device — but they will be lost if you clear your browser data, and they don't transfer between devices.

Yes. The site works in any modern mobile browser. You can also add it to your home screen from your browser's menu, which makes it open like an app.

Use the Submit Radio page and fill in your station's details, including its public stream address. Submissions are reviewed before they appear in the directory. Listing is free.

Send us a message through the contact page with your station's name and the address of its page here. Removal and correction requests from broadcasters are handled promptly — see our Copyright & DMCA page for details.

No. Xyset is a directory: every stream plays directly from the broadcaster's own publicly available servers. We don't host, record, or alter any audio.
