The Best Music Station keeps cookies simple. We use the technologies needed to keep the website and broadcast service running, and we offer optional Google Analytics to help us understand how the site is being used.
No ads. And definitely no tracking you around the web.
When you first visit TBMS, our cookie banner gives you a clear choice. Sounds Good allows optional Google Analytics. No Thanks keeps optional Google Analytics switched off.
Whichever you choose, you can still use TBMS and listen to the station normally. You can change your choice at any time using the button on this page.
If you choose Sounds Good, TBMS loads Google Analytics to give us general information about how the website is being used.
This can include information such as pages viewed, sessions, approximate location, browser or device information, and how visitors move around the site.
Google Analytics may use first-party cookies such as _ga to distinguish
users and sessions. We have configured TBMS so Google advertising signals and
ad-personalisation signals are not used.
If you choose No Thanks, optional Google Analytics is not loaded by TBMS.
When you listen to the station, your device connects to external broadcast infrastructure so the live audio stream and current station information can be delivered to you.
These network connections are part of providing the radio service and are separate from the optional Google Analytics choice described above.
TBMS stores a small preference in your browser so we can remember whether you selected Sounds Good or No Thanks and avoid asking you again on every visit.
That preference is used only to remember your cookie choice.
You can change your choice whenever you want. Use the Change My Cookie Choice button on this page and the TBMS banner will reopen.
If you switch to No Thanks, TBMS will keep optional Google Analytics off for future visits from that browser.

You can also read our Privacy Policy for more information about how TBMS handles personal data.
