What program do you use to play the songs you have now? Most media players can connect to internet radio stations, you just need a link pr a URL. Try this.
http://www.shoutcast.com/

Pick a station, click "Tune In", select the option to use your own media player, a file will download, open that file with Windows Media Player or Quicktime or whatever program youre using and it should start paying.

I am using WMP, but shoutcast is blocked as well. I just tried to go through WMP to find a station and it acts like it's gonna get there and then BAM! Access to this Website it Blocked...

Sounds like your work IT Dept is giving you a giant middle finger.

Yeah it's ridiculous.

Someone told me the reason they are all blocked is because it takes up too much bandwidth and if everyone was using them, it would slow all our systems way down. 99% of what we do is internet based.

- Slacker:

"Access to this website is blocked

If you have a legitimate business need to access this site, please submit a production Network Service Request"

Same for XM.

I think I've just given up. I'm just going to have to get some more music to bring up here and save to the computer.
