Thanks Dale, very kind of you to look into this for me.  I actually want to 
stream from (listen to internet radio), not stream to a server.

Previous versions of vlc had a Service Discovery option which would tune in to 
shoutcast/icecast servers to list and listen to their streams.  This has now 
been removed.  A really good feature was that you could search for music of 
your liking by genre and different servers would show up to allow you to 
connect and listen.
