How do I get audio streams for my Android radio app?
If I take streams (for my android app) from existing radio streaming websites, will it cause copyright issues or something? If so, can anyone suggest sites that won't have this problem? edit: I'm not dealing with individual stations but a website that broadcasts multiple unaffiliated stations like radioreference.com

You must look at the website individually to determine if a license is required.
A quick Google search for "free radio stations" has released this site which lists several free stations without a piano:

However, it looks like even the free servers have copyright notices, so you'll need to contact stations individually to protect permissions.
Another way of doing this is to get radio stations to register with you and agree to have their content streamed through your app as a way to increase their reach.
Good luck!
