I may be wrong since I don't use Media Center, but I am almost certain that
the radio functions of Media Center will only work with a physical tuner
card installed in the computer. I would bet that it is not intended for
internet radio.

You have to have a tuner card AND it has to include FM radio. Not all
TV tuner cards include radio.
