die kanadische Rundfunkgesellschaft CBC hat vor einiger Zeit ihre Stream-URLs umgestellt. Eine Übersicht findet sich hier:
http://www.cbc.ca/listen/index.html
Zu beachten ist, dass die CBC von Windows Media Audio (WMS) zu mp3 als Stream-Format gewechselt ist.

Die CBC bietet übrigens ein schönes Jazz-Programm an:
