See this thread http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35718
for a plugin that works on Slimserver 6.5, but not yet converted to
SC7.

I also use Winamp and Shoutcast server (free to download) to stream any
audio played on my PC. The Winamp DSP plugin allows you to feed the
input of your PC audio card to the server. You can then stream the
audio to the Squeezebox as if it was an internet radio, but on your
internal network.

I use this successfully to stream Launchcast (Yahoo) audio to my
squeezebox and have also tested with other stations using browser
players.  Sound quality can be a bit mixed though!

Details available here: http://www.shoutcast.com/download/

The site has comprehensive instruction on how to set it to work. Once
you are streaming, tune in slimserver to the winamp server on your PC.

I use WinXP but a similar system is available for Linux if that is what
you are running.

I haven't tried it on My ClassicFM because the player locks up my
browser (today).
