I second the Shoutcast plug! You can check out their top stations, or do searches by artist, genre, songs, etc etc.

If you select Play (or it might be Listen) then the station will load up into WinAmp if you have it. From there, select File at the top, and then View File Info. The URL that shows is the one you can enter into your land parcel stream to get it to play. They usually show as a series of numbers.

Hope this was clear enough to help.

Yes, precisely - if you were not familiar with the details you can get the URL from the stream 'info', accessible by a click or two in WinAmp when playing the shoutcast station you like.

I remember not understanding this final step to recover the URL until I was told how. I continued to search the shoutcast station expecting I would find it there - maybe it is, and I just don't realise - but examining the 'info' on the stream in WinAmp definitely works.
