How to Stream US Fm Radio Stations outside the US Atul Singh Tuesday 6 March 2012 1 Comment

Well if you are a Hip Hop ,Rap or English music lover there are lots of Online FM radios available online. As a Hip hop and Rap music lover , I listen Power 106 , Hot 97 Fm , Kiss Fm and Pandora radio(Countless radio stations streaming service) in India. It was working absolutely fine but after 1st march ,2012 , many of the US FM radios stopped streaming in India and Outside US. When a user outside Us tries to access these FM online , they are welcomed by the message : "Cannot play media. Sorry This content is not available in your area." as shown in the screenshot below.

What is  the problem ?:

Well if you are not able to stream Online Fm stations outside US , this is because of the IP address block by these Fm stations . Because of excessive license fee imposed on these Fm stations , these Fm has stopped broadcast outside US. So if you are accessing Fm stations outside US you are welcomed by the message shown in screenshot.

The first thing ,  most of you might have tried accessing these Fm stations using Proxy websites ,but they are not working to play them either.

Solution :

Best possible solution is this case is use of VPNs  (Virtual private network). I have found a useful free Vpn service software that can help you stream your favorite Fm radio outside Usa easily.


It is a free VPN service that connects you to a US based IP address , therefore when you surf the web using USA IP address.This software is available for windows and mac operating systems and it is 100 % working.

Now i can access Power 106 and Hot 97 fm easily in India using this Tip , you can also access them using it.
Below is the screenshot that shows the streaming of Power 106 Fm using Hotspot shield.
