More or less. When the alarm goes off, I'd like to have it play a preselected playlist.

you could plug an FM transmitter into your computer, then pick up the FM on your alarm clock.
Could put an FM transmitter on an MP3 player or cd player and put it right next to the alarm clock.

No, a single song will do, but a playlist is theoretically more flexible.

1. Expensive :Q
2. Wireless streaming.

At this point, this is my hypothetical ideal alarm clock.

Not bad...kinda hackish, but not bad.
