through my Australian ISP Internode, their high performance content
delivery network is unmetered for their customers. They provide Playlists
of these streams in a number of formats (M3U, PLS, OPML, RSS). I believe
that most of the streams are a rebroadcast of shoutcast stations as well as
Australian Radio stations like the national broadcaster ABC and selected
other stations. I believe that there are also some video stations (e.g.
bloomberg) now being offered as well, through their parent company (Iinet)
following a recent joining of forces.

coiuld play them through my main system using mythtv.

Basic shoutcast support was built into .24, although there wasn't a gui.  I
was able to get it working in with a couple of code tweaks and some manual
db updates.

I haven't upgraded to .25 yet so I can't speak to the shoutcast client
status there.
