Do not worry, your setup/system is not at fault. There is a Internet Radio glitch at this time and hopefully it will be resolved soon. Until then try SHOUTcast, same stations as the Internet Radio section of the Media Library.

More info (rather long thread)...
Sticky: Shoutcast / Internet Radio is down

THIS WAS A REPLY TO MY POST ON THE SAME THING - PASTE THE WEB LINK AND THE THING WORKS ...

Shoutcast servers have been in trouble lately, there's a sticky at the top of the Forum about it. Could that be the problem ?

Have you tried testing Winamp by entering a stream address manually.

Go to Menu > Play > URL (or Ctrl+L) and copy this stream into the box :

http://212.187.204.62:80

(Virgin Radio Low bitrate)

UJ

SHOUTcast still seems to be working via the Tune In (http://www.shoutcast.com/images/tunein.gif) button. At least for me it is. For those of you of you having troubles tuning stations form the SHOUTcast page try the suggestions here. Otherwise use the suggestion that Graham24v quoted.

Please stick to the sticky. That's what it's there for.

Not that it'll make any difference anyway...
It'll be fixed when it's fixed. :/
Sooner than later, all being well.
