Thanks everyone - I think you have identified the problem, and some
solutions for me to try:

It doesn't seem to make any difference. It's as though there are only a
handful of stations there. I'm in the UK, which seems to be significant;
see lower down :)

I did. No option to select "France", unfortunately. Its as though there
are no stations being reported for France. But, it seems it may be that
as I'm in the UK, its just that TuneIn are not supplying that data
anymore; keep reading!

I think these are going to be my best options. I would rather avoid too
many plugins and menu complexity, but it may just be the price I have to
pay. I'll disable the TuneIn-based radio plugin and try these instead
:)

I think this is the culprit. I'm based in Southampton in the UK, so
probably subject to this. It likely explains the almost complete lack of
any non-UK streams in the Radio plugin. Will try Radio.Net next :)
