I don't know if this will help, but 'Listen to radio streams' shows URLs 
like

http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_world_service

and

http://timesradio.wireless.radio/stream

which were obtained via the 'add stream' function.  If you don't already 
have the stream list loaded, getting it takes 'forever', ie getting on 
for an hour of 'please wait'.

Most of the other bbc radio streams have closed.

Here's a sample of backend output on watching an iptv channel, which 
does talk about m3u.  This channel usually has something running...
