With so many NPR podcasts out there, there isn't as much of a point now.
However, when I used to frequent a couple:
WEMU (128 kbps, etc.) has some great jazz and blues interspersed among NPR programming.
KCRW (likewise) is a mixed bag, but sometimes plays some great stuff.

True, but sometimes I like listening to the latest news or to a live Senate confirmation hearing. WEMU and KCRW also don't do BBC in the early morning.
WDET Detroit offers a decent stream at a slightly lower bit rate:
http://141.217.119.35:8000/listen.pls
Bit Rate: 96 kbps
Sample Rate: 44.100 kHz
I'll post more links if I can find any.

Nice, thanks. I either listen to CBC1 or public radio at work (if listening to live programming).
