Try SHOUTcast: http://www.SHOUTcast.com
a mix of (mostly) MP3 and AAC streams.

and Icecast.org: http://dir.xiph.org
a mix of MP3 and OGG streams.

There are others, but those are your best start.  Note
that the streams come in a variety of bitrates.

Play back is via XMMS (my preference), Kaffeine, Xine,
or VLC.  I prefer XMMS partly because it can use
"WinAmp 2" skins.  You can also record multiple
streams to your HD with StreamRipper and manage your
stream lists with StreamTuner.

Also, see "The Audio Tech's Page" for more info:
