I have just configured my Sonos using this link for radio Live.
http://wmstream.mediaworks.co.nz/radiolive
To listen to other Mediaworks stations just change radiolive to therock or which ever station you want to listen to.
Good Luck.

That URL does not seem to work.

Apart from that, could you please give more detail on how you configured Sonos - thanks.

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

I have just checked http://wmstream.mediaworks.co.nz/radiolive and it is working for me.
To set up the Sonos I just followed the instructions on the website.
If you are asking how to configure stations that are not included with the Sonos, open the Manage
tab (top left) and click Add Radio Station...
Enter the url and whatever you want to call the station. It will then be available under Select a Music Sorce on the right
in My Radio Stations.
I hope this helps.

I've got a sonos 5 and bridge.
Music stored on synology NAS.

Also have spotify premium linked to it
Web radio integration has caused the radio to be put in garage.

Control the sonos with android app or the iPhone one.

No issues at all really. A couple of times I had to resync the connection when the firmware is updated.
Also the very first time I connected it to my W7 to set it up I had to deactivate the Ethernet driver attached to virtual box virtual machine as it won't see the sonos. As soon as the VM driver deactivated it connected and away we went.

All in all, works very well and has high wife acceptance factor.

Thanks!

OK I have The Rock and Radio Live working but not the others. Does anybody know the addresses for The Sound, The Edge and More FM?

Thanks. Was trying to do it from the iPad app and that obviously doesn't work. Did it on PC and Radio Live now showing on the iPad.

Got Radio Live working but tried the 'thesound' and it did not work.

Not sure how to get the sound working as it does not stream. It runs in a flash popup.
