Thank you for your interest in NativeScript! As you know NativeScript is an open source project with large and growing community. That said I would recommend joining the community channels (join Slack here, SO and the GitHub issues) to be in touch with the latest ideas.
At this very moment, there is no plugin developed for audio streaming expect for the Spotify plugin. This plugin was developed specifically using the Spotify API and the author is a member of the NativeScrip community. Perhaps,getting n touch with other members in the slack channel will give you ideas on how to create your own streaming plugin.
Another plugin that works with audio (but not streaming) is nativescript-sound.
Developed by the community and also open-source this can be, as well, a starting point on how to implement your own plugin.
As for you code sample from the web part - you can not implement DOM specific code in NativeScript application. The reason is because NativeScript is DOM-independent which means the technology behind it is not using the document object model and does not understand the specifics that a DOM browser uses.
However, you can use web-view in which you can provide web content so perhaps that is one valuable option.

Hello Live
I have just started working on a Radio Player myself.
With NativeScript, you don't have to wait for "them" to create plugins. As far as I know, JavaScript may not even be the appropriate solution to used for this kind of task. But if you want to use Javascript at all cost, than a straight forward and super cross platform way of doing it is to use a hidden WebView that you will control from your app. The WebView can have an html5 page with the audio element that is more than able to handle remote streaming audio. But that solution can be tricky if you try to keep your audio running in the background when the app loses focus.
Another alternative is to use the Native* part of NativeScript and use Cocoapods for iOS and Gradle for Android and use an already existing, popular, robust and field tested library and control it directly from NativeScript.
I hope that helps.
