Can't think of something that doesn't also require a PC somewhere, but
possible options:
Standalone MP3 Player:
SliMP3 will play Internet radio stations, and I expect others will too.
PC in a suitable case with and LCD front-end to an MP3 player:
There's loads of these projects around. WinAmp has an LCD plugin, and will
happily play Internet radio. Simply build a Win98 machine that loads
WinAmp on boot with a playlist of all your radio stations. Use one of the
many input plugins to run through the list, and display them using the LCD
plugin. Of course, this'll require a nice box to put it in, and a bit of
work to make it silent. You may prefer the option above ;-)
Cheers,
Andy
