What is the simplest way of...

Being able to listen to internet radio on my hi fi.

I'm becoming increasingly confused here. I have decided to get a WD Live player to play music and films stored on a hard drive.

Now can anyone tell me what the cheapest, simplest, easy peasyiest way is to have a device that connects to a dacmagic and can access internet radio (specifically radio 4 and 3). I dont mind having to access the radio channel from my laptop, I just want to connect wirelessly to the hi fi and play radio 3 and 4.

Thanks in advance.

If you have a wireless network, I'd consider getting an Airport Express as the most cost-effective solution. You will also need to download Airfoil, which adds the ability to stream any application. You might enjoy being able to use Spotify in that way. I toyed with buying an internet radio, but then realised that it would be much more expensive and less versatile.

It doesn't look like itunes plays BBC radio stations? Maybe I'm wrong.

Sorry didn't realise what Airfoil was. This may be the solution I'm looking for.

Sorry - I should have posted the link. Airfoil does work beautifully and will stream anything from your computer. I can listen to the radio at my iMac and in the kitchen without the horrible delay problem that I'd get if my Pure Evoke was using the DAB source. Instead, I send the signal from Airport Express to the Aux input.
