There isn't one app that works for all streams. Although I prefer to use
a standalone player, usually iTunes, WM Player or RealPlayer, many radio
streams open in pop-up windows in a browser, using Flash as an envelope
for WM or MP3 streams. That way you can bookmark each stream. A useful
resource to find radio stations, their web sites and stream links is
http://radio-locator.com/. Lists of public radio stations, programs,
their schedules and stream links are at http://www.publicradiofan.com/.
Since the pop-up windows have URLs, I can add them to my calendar and
have favorite radio stations open automatically in a browser on my own
schedule, without having to write extra scripts.

I do use the Radio feature for radio streaming, but it doesn't have the
greatest lists and is hard to add to. Anyone recommend a good easy to use
streaming radio app for the PC?
This isn't an application, but it is a wonderful resource if you want to find
out what sort of music is available online.

It lists all the music programs available on public radio internet, with the times they are available online, and live links to the stations. I mean, you can find the complete week's schedule for a program you like, or you can find all the music programs that happen to be playing at any particular time.
