What’s in a name, eh? This attractively titled music application is one of the better ones available on the Windows Store, giving you the ability to listen to a countless amount of radio stations from around the world.

Okay, not really countless, but well over forty thousand radio stations are available that you can tune in to right from within the application. The brilliantly designed and colorful interface makes searching for and finding new ones a joy.

It not only lists radio stations by genres or countries, but also top hits that are playing right now, as well as top artists, providing the ability to discover new music.

The official description of Audials Radio gives a pretty nice overview of the app:

“More than 40,000 radio stations available. Browse radio stations by Country, Genres, Suggestions, or zap to stations which start to play back top hits right now. Live-search for radio stations by name, genre, or search for artists to get stations which play the artist frequently.

See what music plays on each station before tuning in. Personalize the app by defining favorite stations, or pinning favorite genres or artists to the home view. Listen to radio in snap-in view. Always see cover pictures of currently playing track.”

You can right click on any station and add it to your favorites for quick and easy access from the start page of this application, and the free app supports Windows 8 on all platforms.
