Streaming Radio?

[MikeW]

Does anybody else listen to the outside world through their computers? I'd love to say it was for a balanced view of world news (and of course, by the time you listen to four countries, you are forced to start thinking for yourself ), but, oops, selfishly, in my case, it is for the music.

I love college radio stations - the music is great, and they are all so uniformly irreverant - the luxury of not paying taxes yet - a recapture of one's youth maybe.

I am currently hooked on the University of Pretoria's "Tuksfm". My home town yes, but when I was there, UP was totally Afrikaans speaking and ultra conservative. This college radio station today is beyond Los Angeles in forward looking music, commercial free, and just plain fun. (OK it is still 25% in Dutch, which I was forced to learn - but Anglo listeners who enjoy rock 'n roll will still enjoy).

Or just the BBC World News? Canal Plus from Paris? Anybody?

I occassionally read on-line news from several other countries but as far as listening to streaming radio I only listen to local talk radio stations.  I have never tried locating streaming radio from other countries.
