Shoutcast Radio (As a client) not as a server.  Of course you can use  
VLC or MPlayer for listening to an mp3 stream granted you built your  
client of choice with mp3 support, or are using fluendo if you happen  
to be using something that depends on the gstreamer backend.

Songbird is particularly nice when you like iTunes in terms of  
integration with media and web.

What do you mean "think" Mr. Turkey?
