try squeezebox server. It is a music library manager that streaming
audio over LAN. Pretty handy when come to internet radio. With a
3rd party NPR plugin, it get program titles and wma stream from
thin.npr.org. 

There are several music player sold by Logitech work with squeezebox
server. I heard their audio quality are very good, but don't have the
chance to actually see or listen to one because they are not available
in my country. A software player called squeezeplay is a good alternative.
