freeRadio enables you to play radio stations whilst watching a YouTube video. The freeRadio functionality is combined with a YouTube video so you can listen to the radio if there's no sound for the video or you'd prefer to listen to the radio rather than the sound provided with the video. You can even play the radio as background sound to a video for videos where for example there's someone that's mostly talking.
