Okay, so Radio is being marketted as an internet radio player, so the need for an internet connection may be less of a concern than for Touch, but even so, it shouldn't be necessary to have a MySB.com account to access most internet radio streams.
I also think that there's no way to change MySB.com account, other than a factory reset of the Radio and going through setup again. Did it download a new firmware when you initially connected it? Do you know what version you have? Depending on the fw version, the device could be accessing a different server for MySB.com (i.e. using a test server). Otherwise it could be that MySB.com was down for a while. >- Can't access 'Internet Radio' Sounds like it hasn't got a MySB.com account registration after all. If you navigate to Settings > Advanced > Diagnostics, you can tell if you have a mysqueezebox.com registration, and you can find the IP address of the MySB.com server. You can also try Settings > Advanced > Networking, and see if you have an option to "switch to Mysqueezebox.com". >- Can't access 'My Music' Maybe it can't find your network. Are you using Wireless? Setup doesn't care about local music. The first time you try to use "My Music" it will search for a local music source to connect to. >- Can't access 'Favorites' Favorites depends on what music source you are connected to. Of course, you are never quite sure what source you are connected to (and it sounds like you aren't connected to any). i.e. if you were on MySB.com, you would have MySB.com favorites (and initially there wouldn't be any). If you had connected to a local source, you would have your SBS favorites. >When I press 'More' when listening to an internet radio station a >window opens up with information, but after the radio's been on for a >bit the window will pop up empty.

My Music means Squeezebox Server (i.e. the server software). Confusing isn't it, because in your case, you probably consider Mysqueezebox.com to be "My Music". >Hopefully someone can help me out here, otherwise this Radio's going >back to Amazon with a negative review. > I'm sure you can eventually get what you need from the device - it is good and worth keeping. However, the setup and access isn't as easy to understand as previous devices (in my opinion, it's got more complicated).
