This is just a simple tip on how to use OPML for for sorting you radio
streams into you own catagories / menus using SqueezeNetwork.

When I got my SqueezeBox3 and started adding radio station into the
SqueezeNetwork > Favorites > Streams list, I was very fustrated that I
could not sort the radio stations into sub menues (when you have more
than 20 stations in the favorites list, is not very easy to
navigate...). There is actually a solution to this problem:

1. Edit an OPML file with your radio stations in multiple levels.
(or make an OPML file for each menu / catagory).

2. Place these files on the web.
(you may have a webspace trough your Internet provider).

3. Add the OPML files under SqueezeNetwork > Favorites > Podcasts

Now you can find your Radio Stations under SqueezeBox menu - Other
Services > Podcasts > XXXX.

The advantages/disadvantages:

(+) It is not possible to delete any of the stations by accident. (in
SqueezeBox3 > Favorites, you will delete a station by pressing right.)

(+) You can create all the menu levels you want.

(-) Internet Streams are indeed not a Podcast and placement in
menusystem it not intuitive - more flexibility of SqueezeNetwork seams
to be welcome :o)
