i use xmms/winamp to listen to internet radio and here are the only
stations on my list:

   http://24.86.120.206:8000  (xpidernet)
   http://66.54.67.132:8452   (pinoy radio)
   http://64.236.34.4:80/stream/1074 (club 997)


the first two play opm music.xpidernet sometimes experience bandwidth
troubles but i like 'old school' pinoy alternative. and both helps in
keeping home sickness at bay. :)

the third one plays fairly new singles, like the stuff they are
currently playing on mtv. i have never used rhythmbox. xmms has always
been my music player in linux.

ciao!
