shoutcast-streams are mp3-streams used by winamp.
http://www.shoutcast.com/download/files.phtml lists a shoutcast-server for
linux.

http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/AudioStreaming has a modification for libmad
to let it play streams.

I am new to linux, so i do not know any player except mpg123 and your
vdr-extension :-) but i think there should be serveral players for X that
support mp3-streams. At least there are virtually no windows-players which
do not support it (and i don't think linux can be that far behind *g*) ...
