If I told you of a solution, well, it's not ready for use really, it's digital, and you'd hate it. I would not particularly enjoy setting it up either, as it sounds like a lot of work.
The only reason Internet Radio makes sense, is if it is "friction free" and just works. If you have to fight with it, what's the point exactly ? As soon as you have to reach for a soldering iron, write new firmware, set up a proxy streaming server, you'll question your own sanity on the matter.

"sandstrom" is a Currys own brand. They usually fail before any external 'issue' affects their use.
