Predefined Live Streaming Channels

I think it would be cool to have a pre-defined set of live streaming channels that could be shipped
preconfigured in Subsonic.

Maybe even have them grouped together in categories:
Perhaps at least the International News stations that offer free streaming-
* Bloomberg (direct), BBC World (livestation) , Democracy Now, Al Jazeera (direct), CNN (Livestation) and so on

I guess the opportunities are almost endless on how awesome this could be done... Subsonic could for instance ship with a complete http://www.radiotime.com clone...

I guess to keep the interface uncluttered, it would maybe make sense to add a TV and Radio stream button next to the Podcast icon on the top bar,
instead of listing every channel on the "main index" to the left.

But these were just ideas of the top of my head...

I think the idea of putting the radio streams on their own tab is a good idea and would reduce the left frame "clutter"
It would also be nice to have a predefined STOP button and also to be able to stream to the jukebox.
Not sure about pre-defined radio stations though although a couple of "get you started" selections which could be deleted/changed might be a good idea.
