Hi everyone!
I think I've found a solution to this problem. I can tell you,
right off, that you cannot right-click on a stream - not even my
sighted roommate can do that! He can, however, click & drag, a
stream to the playlist of his choice, but this does us VO users no
good. Once a stream is in a playlist, however, you can. Apparently,
the list of streams is a "special" list, and Apple hasn't implemented
a contextual menu for it.
What I did was to use the "New playlist from selection (Command+Shift
+N)". YOu go into your "Sources" list, select "Radio Stream", then,
go into the "Songs" list, open the folders you want streams from,
turn VO cursor tracking off (Control+Option+Shift+F3), make sure
nothing is selected (Command+Shift+A), then, using the VO "Select"
command (Control+Option+Space) select all the streams you want on a
playlist, do Command+Shift+N to make playlist from selection, enter a
playlist name, in the edit box, then click "OK". Don't forget to
reactivate cursor tracking, before you issue the Make Playlist from
Selection command, otherwise you won't be in your edit box, to enter
the playlist name!
Now, if you select this playlist, select a stream, and click play,
you'll hear it. Also, you can press "Previous" to go to the previous
stream, or "Next" to begin playing the next stream.
This Apple Script, which was recently sent to the list, will
certainly do the job, as well, but for those of us who don't do a
lot, or anything with, Apple Script, this method is a round-about
way, but it works!
HTH?

Hi John,
I too wanted to creat a streeming play list, so I created a play
list called "my radio stations", however, I have not found a way
to move radio station links from the list to my play list. If
any one has this answer, please pass it along. Mean while, I
will try to do some reasearch on this some time today.
