You can use MediaPlayer class to play radio station. You need to pass radio station's url init.

for example This is one radio station's url http://shoutcast2.omroep.nl:8104/

So, Now initialise Media Player's object with it as follows, 

MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer();
player.setDataSource(“http://shoutcast2.omroep.nl:8104/”); 
player.prepareAsync();
player.setOnPreparedListener(new OnPreparedListener(){

            public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
                     player.start();
            } 

});

You can download example code from here

Your question is a bit to general, but let's be tolerant and answer it.. With Android almost everything is possible :D

You need to define what you mean by "producing" of sound.. If it is some process of generating music on mobile device, it is possible! If you want to share music from your mobile SDcard, again you can do it.. 2nd thing you need to decide is how you want to distribute music, as stream or as files (services like spotify, youtube or grooveshark). Then you need to start with simple things to gain knowledge of technologies you would need for this project which is not simple at all..

Anyway I hope, you got a clue about size.. Probably you didn't expect we to write your code so next steps are up to you.. Welcome to Android wonderland and good luck with projects..
