A while ago I did a discussion, asking whether developers prefer to code while listening to music or not. I was surprised about how many positive answers I got.
Therefore in this article, I collected some of my favorite radio stations that you can use to get some awesome music and increase your productivity while coding.
I will provide you with the direct link, give you a concise description of it as well as include the screenshot, so you can get an initial impression on the fly.
