my understanding is the default way internet radio works is that
regardless of how you start the connection, ultimately it becomes a
direct connection between the hardware and the internet source of the
stream.

b/c i was complaining to Andy, he did put in a feature in SBS where you
can force SBS to "proxy" the stream, supposedly making it more reliable.
i think it does, but not enough.  its what SBS does by default when two
or more pieces of hardware are sync'd.

in addition, in both the hardware and software, you can up the buffer
times to 30 seconds i think.

in my exp, no matter what you do with slim configs, winamp is far more
robust and reliable.
