We no longer recommend submitting a station using the old Windows Media Guide instructions. Its former radio directory link now redirects to a retired Microsoft support page, and we could not verify an active station submission process.
To list your station, use a directory with a current submission page. Below are the links to check and the station details to prepare.
The old Windows Media Guide radio directory address no longer opens a station directory. It redirects through Microsoft’s former Groove pages to a retired support article. This does not establish a shutdown date, but it means the old link is no longer a useful listing destination.
We have not verified the old email address, partner requirements or review times as current. We no longer provide the email template or recommend following up through that process.
TuneIn’s official help page directs broadcasters to its self-service portal for station listing requests. You can use the TuneIn station request form. Submitting a request does not guarantee a listing.
For other options, see our internet radio station directory guide. Check the submission instructions on each directory’s own website before sending your station details.
The details you need depend on the directory. Keep your station information ready and test your public stream before submitting.
Check that your stream stays online during your advertised broadcast hours and that your station information is consistent. Do not treat the old Windows Media Guide rules as requirements for another directory.
If you still need to finish your setup, start with what you need to stream live with Shoutcast or Icecast.
A directory listing helps listeners find your station. It is separate from playing your stream in an app. Microsoft still documents streaming playback in Windows Media Player Legacy, but that documentation does not provide a station listing process.
