The problem is that the BBC is switching off all SHOUTcast streams (bar temporarily live radio with MP3), so we'll need to find ways of handling HLS or HDS. Thankfully with LMS we have ways of doing this, unlike other internet radio systems - there's a huge fuss over on the BBC blog by Jim Simmons. And also thankfully, bpa has given us a first-pass plugin that gets HLS working. Phew. I think it portrays LMS very positively that it is future-proofed - maybe your colleagues at Logitech should have another look at the Squeezebox business context?
