I have been very fond of the sound menu integration that can be done via Last.fm and the present radio stations. I wanted to know a way to listen to JazzRadio or for that matter any radio on the Internet I like.
I tried installing the plug-in for Rhythmbox but it didn't show in the plug-ins (menu) for Internet radio in Rhythmbox.
The default Rhythmbox URL based radio-station capability is limited - you have to research the internet radio-station - and then find what the actual URL it uses to play the radio-stream.
Fortunately - there is another way
