Just save this to /usr/local/bin and then make it executable:

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/vlc
You can try it out by running vlc inside Terminal:

vlc http://www.radioparadise.com/m3u/aac-128.m3u
If the audio skips, then try the direct stream instead:

vlc http://stream-tx4.radioparadise.com:80/aac-128
The Ogg stream is also pretty good:

vlc http://stream-sd.radioparadise.com/rp_192m.ogg
