Probably not what you are looking for but I bought one of these.
They sound good, have internet and digital rado as well as the normal FM - not sure about AM. And it can stream from your PC - although I have not got it doing that yet!
AVANTI Flow - Table-top Digital Music System.

Perhaps take a look at getting Apple tv (awesome little thing) and some Airplay enabled speakers. Can stream hundreds of radio stations directly to the speakers.
EDIT, possibly takes you slightly over budget though.

It seems I was thinking of The Wireless Telegraphy Act which says

(a)he uses wireless telegraphy apparatus with intent to obtain information as to the contents, sender or addressee of a message (whether sent by means of wireless telegraphy or not) of which neither he nor a person on whose behalf he is acting is an intended recipient, or
(b)he discloses information as to the contents, sender or addressee of such a message.
(2)A person commits an offence under this section consisting in the disclosure of information only if the information disclosed by him is information that would not have come to his knowledge but for the use of wireless telegraphy apparatus by him or by another person.
(3)A person does not commit an offence under this section consisting in the disclosure of information if he discloses the information in the course of legal proceedings or for the purpose of a report of legal proceedings.
(4)A person who commits an offence under this section is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale.

I've a feeling they dropped the ability to listen to civil air transmissions from later models of that Sony I had. Perhaps that's what doodab was thinking about.

If you buy one, just don't use the microphone, EVER (unless you're a hammy!)
