I listen a considerable amount of my time webradio's. At first, I accessed my streams through the files menu but i found this way to be time consuming. At present, I have saved my streams as favourites. Now, I can access them easier than before.
At the moment, I'm thinking of putting my streams in a playlist and give the playlist a new home icon (some skins support this) instead of the 'favourites' solution.
Before I'm going to through all this hassle, I'm wondering how you guys (and girls) handle your radio streams?

I don't. I use the radio add-ons to do it for me (listenlive.eu). Do you know any radio streams directory? Assuming you're in Europe, could you share you sources? I'd like to have other options.
Thanks

I use file view and I added a source under the Music heading called "Radio", then added my streams as .strm files. This sounds the same as your current approach. It doesn't seem time consuming to me, though if you had hundreds of radio streams I can see it would be cumbersome. For my half a dozen streams it works fine.
