I listen to a lot of streaming radio.. jazz, classical, ambient.. and I grew up on this way of listening with the Internet Radio station library that came within MacOS iTunes. I got used to saving and/or bookmarking the music stream URLs that iTunes used, *.pls files: abcd.com/filename.pls Many streaming stations have URLs for different bit-rates, which I find useful to have.
Now there are streaming services with large collections of stations like TuneIn and IHeartRadio. I notice that some independent streaming stations are now found in the TuneIn directory, but not the iTunes internet radio library now. The old *.pls URLs I have still work fine using iTunes or QuickTime or etc. Related: https://help.tunein.com/why-is-my-streaming-url-not-accepted-BkOmg50c_vM
Just curious if any forum members have found any reasons to stream internet radio one way or the other. Thank You!
