Note 1 : This is just the list I am personnally using for my WorldSpace listening, just shared here with you. This is not another reference. It just meets my needs.  In case of conflict, french issue takes precedence, although I try to update both simultaneously.

Note 2 : A multimedia service should be available in France shortly. Some tests must be in process.

Channels are listed here in the order they appear when I listen.
Changes done since this issue will only appear in... next update. This is not a real time service.
Some comments may be personal. For commercial infos (prices, subscriptions...), refer to the authorised sources.
