I have myself published a script called whichstation; I made this for BE FR and NL + some other stations. The problem I encounter is to get an updated list of updated streaming-urls: Google is my friend in that case, and more and more radio stations does use a .php url + a javascript-alike app that starts a .swf player, which does contain a real m3u or mp3 of asf or asx location. I am not sure to be able to continue maintaining my script, but it was designed to be a) blindfriendly b) and using mplayer on the commandline. There isn't any url online where to go for having the latest upgraded streaming urls for all radios in the world; I totally missed how does shoutcast and icecast sites does maintain those lists, but I'm not full professionally busy with radio streamings, so can't do anymore for now. I propose to send you a package of whichstation at the end of the week, once I've tried to fix some broken urls in the whichstation.lst; maybe this can inspire for similar projects, even if ooutside Europe.
