Howard, I haven't messed much with internet radio on the beta version but I 
am pretty sure you can use an existing folder of favorites now which you 
couldn't do on the first version.  I have mainly been messing with the BARD 
and podcast stuff which works great but for a few minor bugs.  I have 
downloaded a couple magazines and a book from the BARD site which take 
longer than using your computer but it works in the background and doesn't 
tie up the Stream.  The thing unzips the book and puts it in the internal 
four gig memory.  Tapping the three key twice,  will send the book to your 
talkingbooks folder on the SD card.  The three key is   normally used to 
delete stuff, so it's kind of strange to also use it to copy files.  Jim

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.
