This relies on somebody being told about the pop up stations ( did
anybody ask for the Eurovision popup station ?) and having to update
files.  The hard part is finding out the URL before it starts
broadcasting. An alternative approach would be to process the vendor
feed of station URLs http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/imda/imda_transports.xml
which would result in a very comprehensive menu of all supported live
station formats combinations but it would be self maintaining as long as
BBC keep the feed up to date.  User can go through the menu and then
pick a station to be a favorite.
