If you're going that way, there's also FIP.
And a ton of internet radio stations (or, if that term confuses people: streams) that play really good stuff off the beaten path 24/7.
I mentioned that one because it's been at it since way before the Internet and is now well known even beyond France for the extremely eclectic and high quality selection it plays. FIP originally stands for France Inter Paris, it was meant as a music only station with only very short interruptions with soothing voices for news and traffic. The women with those particular tones of voice became known as the fipettes, and got some kind of faceless celebrity as a result. It used to be a standard setting on every car radio before there were a bazillion ststions (and CDs, and streaming).
I will check this out thanks
