Hello,
Is there something like youtube, ie streaming media, but doesn't contain the video that I'm not interested and therefore doesn't waste my bandwidth?

Ta.

I do internet radio etc, but in that case I'm not choosing the songs. Pandora and such have stupid licences that mean I can't listen to it without buggering around.

Last.fm looks interesting. I'll check it out. Ta.

Hype Machine indexes and streams music posted to various MP3-oriented music blogs.

My main problem was wasted bandwidth :)
Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions, people. It seems I've given in to shoutcast style radio. It turns out to be not-as-crap as normal radio as it hardly requires any more to run and so there's billions of stations out there catering to my tastes. Plus, none of them have a person talky-talking over the top.
