Hi.. i haven't tried it out but looks pretty cool!

one thing i'm not sure about is building a site on drupal 4.7 and 
flexinode, which are sort of dead ends support-wise.

(but i'd be willing to help out w/ upgrading to more modern 
architecture if folks do want this format for the site)

i do think a stream directory and audio aggregation are important too.
with this stuff integrated we could get fancy and have quick drop-down 
menus to put a stream or audio piece on the schedule.
