A new industry group made up of both the BBC and the commercial--uh,
"Independent Local Radio" sector plans to have a web site up in beta
form by Christmas that will give users access to *every* analog and
digital radio signal in the UK:

Of course, some of those ILR stations that stream block the stream
from U.S. Internet users--would they still be able to on this
ubersite?

Adam can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe "ILR" includes not
just commercial stations, but college and community stations, stations
that only operate a few weeks a year to cover events or give new
community owners a test run at radio and the newer low-power stations,
which I believe are mostly foreign-language, with the major exception
of London's ultra-avantgarde/lefty political Resonance FM.  IIRC, all
of these stations can air ads (Resonance chooses not to, making it one
of the few UK broadcasts outlets dependent on listener contributions).
