NPR Player Extension

With this extension, there's no need to have a dedicated tab open for radio anymore — the extension just runs in the background. Simply click on the icon and press play, simple & always available.



This extension is streaming the \"NPR Program Stream\":

\"The NPR Program Stream airs recordings of recent NPR programs after they air live on NPR Member stations, and NPR may interrupt the stream's schedule for news events.\" — from npr.org
