Streaming Audio to an iPod Touch

Posted:
in iPod + iTunes + AppleTV edited January 2014
I just bought an iPod Touch with the intent of placing it in my speaker dock and listening to NPR's stream. Unfortunately, NPR uses Flash, so this doesn't work. However, there are plenty of stations that offer live streams in other formats. Is there any way to listen to them with my iPod? On my laptop, the MP3 stream plays in Safari, but with the touch, I receive the message that it cannot download the file.



Also, I know no one knows for sure, but are there any strong indications when the ability to use Flash will be added to the iPod Touch?



Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply, but I need to stream audio without any other computers involved.
