The sound quality of your laptop has little to do with anything. It's mostly bandwidth and processing power. As long as the streaming audio is 128kbps or higher and you have a fast enough processor to turn those 1s and 0s in to music, you can run near-CD quality music out of a headphone jack to your stereo RCAs.
Fred181, a lot of straming stations run bit rates as low as 24kbps. Maybe that's what you are listening to that sounds poor. Even 64 isn't great. But once you get to 128, it's hard to tell it from a CD.
