To elaborate... the problem with "pause" is that the players will keep receiving new data from the radio stream all night and since they can't re-sync they will drift more and more between each other. Proxied streaming doesn't solve that, the problem is that the clocks of the players are different (especially problematic) for different players and since they play all the data that comes in at the clock rate they would eventually have to resync. With local music (or tracks streamed online) they can do this because there's always a reference in the form of the starting point of the track but a continuous stream doesn't have any reference point so there's nothing against which the players could re-sync. The only way to re-sync is to completely stop the stream and then have them re-start, all at the same point in time (because they all re-request the stream at the same time).
