'''Streamtuner''' is a [streaming media](/source/streaming_media) directory browser. Through the use of a [C](/source/C_programming_language)/[Python](/source/Python_(programming_language)) plugin system, it offers a [GTK+](/source/GTK%2B) 2.0 interface to Internet radio directories.  Streamtuner does not actually play any files, it downloads a list of online radio streams and then tells the unix player (user's option) to play the selected stream.  Streamtuner offers hundreds of thousands of music resources in a more common interface.

Streamtuner is [free software](/source/free_software), released under the terms of the revised [BSD license](/source/BSD_license).

There is also a version for the [Nokia 770](/source/Nokia_770) Internet tablet.
