I had intended to add an example ogg station as well but all I could find were overseas.

Glad you find the extension useful.

Totally understand. It seems the default volume of whatever you're playing will be based on what the kindle has the volume set to. I have a few of those novelty pocket sized Bluetooth speakers I was thinking of trying to use with the kindle. Pairing my headphones is negligible. I was really hoping to finally have a use for these things besides some future hardware project I might never start or finish.

As for the Sky, I actually misread your first entry, KSKYAM as WSKYFM and assumed you might have been a local. Seems in reality I was pretty close haha. I've been a listener for years. As another user said, I'm a bit too distracted by lyrics and talk while reading, so classical has been a good choice for me.

And yeah, I looked at your menu.json and it's very easy to add streams to. I found a bunch of streams on the Icecast server directory ( http://dir.xiph.org/ ). They're tagged if they're using mp3 (or even Vorbis, since you said ogg works). I assume you just write ogg instead of mp3 in the params line.
