Nice ! I would love to have a stream to play in my music player rather than in my web browser !
Bundle this into an app with some nice photos or live webcam and I'll throw some money at it!

#12[ SomaFM SF 10-33] http://somafm.com/sf1033/ Ambient music mixed with the sounds of San Francisco public safety radio traffic. [ SomaFM Mission Control ] http://somafm.com/missioncontrol/ A mix of ambient and experimental music mixed with the historical sounds of the space program.
Soma FM is one of my favourite things. Their stations are among my top listening while working. The lack of ads/interruption and excellently compiled playlists make for wonderful listening that truly augments my mood and ability to concentrate.
Another recommendation :
I used to listen to "Bluemars - Music for the space traveler" stream, but it has been defunct[0] for some time. However, it seems someone is trying to revive it there [1]. It is really great to use as background when coding. Eerie and inspiring.
(I just hope that my link won't DDOS it)

Mission Control is my all time favourite SomaFM channel!

#17In a similar vein, there's a great album that mixes ambient music with field recordings from airport terminals: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_for_Real_Airports

Thanks, and thanks to mkal_tsr for the link to Mission Control, that sounds like fantastic music for work! Here is a list of my go-to music for work:
* (mandatory, already seen multiple times on HN) http://musicforprogramming.net/
* Kruder & Dorfmeister - The K+D Sessions. Fantastic mix.
* Apparat - The whole discography, but especially Silizium, and Krieg und Frieden. Both mix deliciously electronic and violin/cello.

#19There's also a similar native app for iOS called La Vue – perfect for late night coding sessions. It's also an eerie experience to walk down the streets of your own city while listening to the sounds of another city on the other side of the globe/country.
