I don't worry about the "prelisted entries." I drag the stations I like 
to a playlist I created called "radio bookmarks."

There may be easier ways to get a new station's URL off the web but 
this is how I do it. I set iTunes so that it plays when Safari gets an 
MP3 stream URL. Once it's playing in iTunes I get the URL from the 
"Recently Played" playlist and drag it to my "Radio Bookmarks." Some 
web radio sites give you the actual URL, you can type those into 
iTune's dialog at Advanced>Open Stream.

As far as I know, BBC streams are not available in MP3 and can't be 
played in iTunes. Pity.

Hope this helps.
