Ummmm...which is it?

It's both! I live waaaaayyy out in the country - sometimes my DSL line at home is good, sometimes it's bad. This morning, it's pretty good (CST in USA)

I just switched back to AM. Had my 1st prebuffer at 0:30 seconds, though the drop was short enough I didn't hear it. Just did it again: 2:58, again 9:56.

Hmmm...I'm sorry - not sure what time zone you're in... Also, I think I missed what player you're using.
But I think the evidence leans heavily toward this problem being a localized condition for you. I have four reports of the stream being OK (the user I asked above is really connection-intensive, and lets me know when anything is wrong with teh station/stream) .
I've seen this problem before every once in awhile, and I can't really explain it, where people can listen to one internet station, but not other ones. I've experienced it myself in the five years I've been shoutcasting, but never really found out what the problem was. I've seen some correlation with listening to overseas stations.
Keep posting when you're seeing buffering - I'll keep investigating.
