Been listening to <a href="http://www.dnbradio.com/">www.dnbradio.com</a> for a few weeks now & have to say thanks to Valis for pointing us all in it's direction

Was just wondering if anyone else out there can offer reccomendations for other internet radio stations playing other specific styles or genres of music?

I stream it directly from iTunes list

sharc, shoutcasts are incredibly easy to find and narrow to specific genres (and bitrates). Just go to http://www.shoutcast.com and select genre (and/or bitrate) in the upper right.

Also Songbird has a pretty extensive list of online streaming resources (aggregating sites like shoutcast as well as individual stations). It's not a large download, is fully open source and doesn't install anything else (spyware). I don't run it myself but I do install it on my family's machines as an alternative 'radio' resource.

Here you have a cool explanation of the technologies involved and some players, very well explained:

Then Spinner is a good choice as well, I have used it for several years, but now anymore, just for a matter of time, but there you get separated styles and you got them all:
