How to get list of ShoutCast streams

[Rado Buransky]

Hi,

I would like to create a player for streaming radios and I want to get actual list of all streams from shoutcast server. Just like WinAmp in its Media Library. When you go to WinAmp -> Media Library -> Streaming Media -> Internet Radio, WinAmp connects to a server and retrieves long list of streams. How is this done?

Thanks a lot

Best way would be to look at making your own directory system where people can register and add their stations.
