Shahar s answer was really helpful  but I found it quite tedious to do this all myself  so I made a nifty little Python program   import re import urllib2 import string url1   raw input  Please enter a URL from Tunein Radio      open file   urllib2 urlopen url1   raw file   open file read    API key   re findall r StreamUrl             raw file    print API key   print  The API key is      API key 0   use key   urllib2 urlopen str API key 0     key content   use key read    raw stream url   re findall r Url               key content   bandwidth   re findall r Bandwidth            key content   reliability   re findall r lity            key content   isPlaylist   re findall r HasPlaylist           key content   codec   re findall r MediaType                 key content   tipe   re findall r Type                key content   total   0 for element in raw stream url      total   total   1 i   0 print  I found     str total      streams    for element in raw stream url      print  Stream      str i   1       print  Stream stats        print  Bandwidth      str bandwidth i       kilobytes per second       print  Reliability      str reliability i             print  HasPlaylist      str isPlaylist i             print  Stream codec      str codec i             print  This audio stream is     tipe i  lower             print  Pure streaming URL      str raw stream url i              i   i   1 raw input  Press enter to close TMUS      It s basically Shahar s solution automated

When you go to a stream url  you get offered a file  feed this file to a parser to extract the contents out of it  the file is  usually  plain text and contains the url to play

The provided answers didn t work for me  I m adding another answer because this is where I ended up when searching for radio stream urls    Radio Browser is a searchable site with streaming urls for radio stations around the world   http   www radio-browser info   Search for a station like FIP  Pinguin Radio or Radio Paradise  then click the save button  which downloads a PLS file that you can open in your radioplayer  Rhythmbox   or you open the file in a text editor and copy the URL to add in Goodvibes
