Hi Ramesh !
With the current version of X11amp you are able to listen to MP3 Streaming Servers. Just hit STRG-L and enter the URL and port number, like "http://143.93.41.158:8000";
(My own radio, spam, spam :)
The official Linux project can be found under www.icecast.org Icecast is a MP3 Streaming Server fully compatible to the Shoutcast-Server ( www.shoutcast.com ).
The tarball includes the source for 'shout', an MP3-streamer and 'listen', an program to listen to streaming servers.
I don't know, if there is a deb-package out there, but with all information provided it should be no problem to compile.
You can also find a list of broadcasting channels with genre and bitrate information there too.
Enjoy !
