Use of the TuneIn service is built into LMS.
When you search in the Radio section it is TuneIn that is being
searched.

LMS (or the local Squeezebox player) connects directly to the given
stream URL.
TuneIn (previously known as RadioTime) provides the queryable database
of stream URLs.
What it returns is generally a playlist URL which goes back to TuneIn
and then when that is fetched it returns real stream URL(s) of the radio
station.

If you are interested in making an internet radio station that the world
can listen to then something like SHOUTcast is more likely to be used.
While LMS could do it (after a fashion - using the /stream.mp3 function)
it is not really what it is for.
