Radio/TV Streaming programs or websites?

Are there any good Radio and TV streaming programs or websites?
They must cover international stations and be expandable so that I can add my own stations. They can either be added locally or they're open to adding stations to their website /program -- I would think that most active websites woudl be open to that -- but programs are another thing.

Some websites say that they are PDA compatible.. but while the menu is compatible, the audio doesn't actually load directly (I've had Pocket IE and even Opera Mini show me the contents of an .asx file, instead of open it in WMP).

Thanks

I use core player it streams youtube and it will also stream shoutcast playlists, laft.fm has a streaming client and HTC has a streaming media player so does realplayer.

Got a really cool gadget today for anyone who likes streaming radio or even using there tilt for mp3s and podcasts. Its called the MOTOROKR t505, i saw it on g4's attack of the show they gave it a really hi score. Anyways it connects to your phone via bluetooth and and it works as a speakerphone and a music streamer to your car stereo over fm.

This is a really nice product it acually lets you choose to use it built in speaker or transmit fm. It just clips on your visor. It was really awesome to pair it up to my phone and stream shoutcast stations ovwer the radio definately worth it if your ina g3 area, acually shoutcast does a pretty good job with a strong edge signle too.

Channel Chooser is a good site for streaming video. TCPMP with all the codecs loaded is a freeware solution for streaming.

An excellent Radio station list is at TUNED.mobi - Listen to US, Canadian, UK, RoI and Australia Radio Stations on your Pocket PC, Palm, Symbian-based handheld, Smartphone, PDA or other mobile device via Wi-Fi, GPRS/CDMA, 3G or Bluetooth! . 5 countries to choose from.

Thanks for the input.

A) Channel Chooser is the website where some links, including the CNN link, don't properly open up the media.

B)Tuned.mobi is good for US Radio (and the countries listed, I would guess).

C) wi-not looks cool, but at least for radio is quite limited at the moment (it is beta). It has about 15 radio stations for the entire US. Also, for one of the features, it asked about installing a mini Flash application, which seemed to cause all sorts of issues when I installed it.. which went away when I uninstalled it. It doesn't seem to have a way for me to add stations which I want (it just adds their stations to a favorite list).

D) I think for now, I'll just continue updating my local HTML table file, until I find a good website which has things which can launch and I can add any missing international stations.

D) MOTOROKR - I actually purchased a T501, which seems to be the same as the T505, directly from ATT. (If you have a FAN, the discount may make it worth it.) Overall, I like it... but since I'm in a major metropolitan area, finding a clear radio frequency isn't so easy (like with any FM transmitter).
To make it worse, my car has its FM antenna embedded in the back window (it also has a Diversity antenna system), therefore, the transmitter isn't right next to the antenna of the receiver.

The automatic find of an empty frequency doesn't work too well. At least it can prioritize frequencies, once you find some good ones... although I wish that you could just manually set some, instead of waiting for it to call out a good frequency.


Thanks

Yeah Channel Chooser is pretty hit or miss. Keeping your own link table of things that work is a good idea. Hopefully your share with us at some point.

If you just want radio, Reciva is quite good.
You can set up your own favorites etc.
