This is very bad news indeed.

I listen to radioparadise.com every day on my SB3 and Radio Paradise is
under threat from this decision. There's a very long 'thread'
(http://www.radioparadise.com/content.php?name=Forums&file=showtopic&topic_id=9567&start=1280)
on their site and according to the station owner BillG on 16 April,
Yahoo and Microsoft (and others) are becoming involved:

Hopefully Logitech/Slim Devices are backing this issue too as I'm sure
I'm not alone in using my SB3 for predominantly internet radio
listening.

Unfortunately I'm in the UK, so can't do much to help from over here!
