I cant speak for the networks, but...I think you will find a good cross section of stuff via streaming radio on your WinAmp/ITunes/RealPlayer, etc. I tend to like 89.9 in Santa Monica...they mix in jazz with progressive electronica. Also, KKGo in LA. A good general resource guide to Jazz can be found at this link:

Happy listening..

Head over to MusicDonkey.Org (http://www.varkoume.com/donkey/) . You might need to register to browse, I don't remember. You'll find a section dedicated to Jazz,Classical,Blues. It is mostly Jazz. If you like what you find then you can download the files by using one of the clients on the edonkey network, the main ones being Overnet (serverless, very fast), eMule (open source and currently by far the most popular, server based, not so fast), or eDonkey2000 (hybrid connects to server and serverless clients so ultimately will find the most sources/rarest files. Speed similar to eMule).
If you choose Overnet or eDonkey2000 be aware that there is optional spyware in the installation package, just choose a custom install and decline to install the optional software. I don't know what kind of PC you are using but Overnet uses less system resources than the other two. If you choose eMule or eDonkey be aware you may need to run them for several hours before there is any great activity. All are the kind of clients which benefit from running 24/7. Overnet starts downloading and uploading almost immediately so is more suitable in situations where you can't leave your PC on 24/7. IMHO Overnet is currently the outstanding p2p client.
Happy hunting!
