Internet radio stations that sound really good

There are 3 I have found whose sound quality stands out.

Bartok Radio Budapest, classical channel which broadcasts at 256 kbps mp3.

Big Blue Radio, 128 kbps AAC+ laid back classic rock channel. You can get the stream off of Shoutcast.com without having to register with their web site.

Great Radio, 160 kbps mp3. Classic rock that rocks. I can only find them at Shoutcast.com. They sound awfully good for 160 kbps mp3.

Edgejazz,

Thanks for the station. I'm a jazz fanatic and the CBC station is excellent.

Check out the two stations below, they really cook:

Pure Jazz Radio

101.ru - Jazz (in Moscow, Russia)

Lupinthe3rd, I don't think there are enough audiophiles to support such a service. Or, they'd have to jack up the rate so high, it would be unbearable. Rhapsody is $13 per month for 192 bitrate MP3. To get FLAC on a subscription basis, they'd have to charge $50 per month or more. Even then it might not survive if they don't get enough subscribers.
