Howard:

I kind of get the gist of what you are saying here, and it is very
interesting.

I just got my new-generation Stream about a week ago, and am learning things
as I have time.  I think I have ootunes somewhat figured out for internet
radio, although I'm still working out some of the specifics.  I, too, notice
that ootunes doesn't have some URL's for internet radio stations that I know
are out there.

When you get time, could you send me a step-by-step set of instructions for
importing radio stations from winamp into the Stream's internet favorites
folder?

Please use my personal e-mail address for this, since I'm not sure how many
folks on the list would be interested.

The address is:

I won't get to this immediately, so whenever you have time would be fine.

Thanks in advance.

I think I posted this a long time ago, but I had to figure it out again. 
Those senior moments!!!

When you import a file of radio stations in to the stream, it has to be an
"m3u" file.
I have 209 stations in my winamp bookmark filesome of which I would like to
my stream favorites.
In the file, the first line is the URL, and the second is the name of the
stream in English.
I was able to put the winamp.bm file on my SD card.  Then I renamed the file
to winamp.m3u, Then I imported it in to the stream.
Then I selected it and tested the chosen stream.  Their are 209 of them, so
this took a while.
If the sURL worked, and I liked it, I added it to my favorites.  If the
favorite was already there, the stream said so.
Unlike ootunes, the name of the radio station is the URL, so this is a
weaknes, but you can find lots of working stations that ootunes doesn't know
about.
I wish their was a way to edit and organize the victor stream favorites, so
similar stations could be grouped together.
