Love this.

Curious how you chose the default 8 stations? This is obviously super nitpicky but WERS deserves the Boston spot over WHRB IMO. Yeah, Emerson isn't exactly a powerhouse school, but their radio station is a legitimate player in a major radio market in a way that most college radio stations (Harvard's included) aren't. Definitely more important in Boston than WHRB is.

That aside, I'll two stations to your list: my former home station, WRBB, in lovely Boston, Massachusetts, and WMBR across the river in Cambridge.

This is awesome. Brings back a lot of memories. Love how fast the streams switch. Can you add WBGU-FM out of Bowling Green, Ohio?

Just added! Their stream is insecure, so it might not load on Chrome desktop. But should be functional on other browsers + on mobile :)

nit: should've clarified it's US stations only

It has University of Cologne and a bunch of Canadian stations! Are there any other international college stations you'd like to see on it? I've mostly been adding stations from user requests, and most of them have been in the US.

First four-ish were my favorites when I was building this, and the rest were pretty arbitrary (though I favored streams that were more reliable on more platforms). I actually like WERS better than WHRB; will switch them on the next push :)
