@ Shane - are you saying that Squeezecenter supports internet radio. That’s one thing I presently like about Media Monkey is that it also supports Shoutcast which I use all the time.


Yes, it supports Shoutcast, Live365 and radioio, and subscribed services from Pandora and Rhapsody. Check their wiki at http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/InternetRadio

It also supports adding your own stations by simply adding the URL into your favorites list.

The only drawback is that a Squeezebox is expensive. $450 plus for the new model with the color LCD screen built right into the remote so you don't have to try and stare across the room to choose your music.

Still, I have the old version and if speakers are not toys, then the Squeezebox is my favorite toy purchase ever.
