Seems less and less radio will stream

Postby URDRWHO » 20 Apr 2016 13:30

It seems that as time goes along, less and less online radio streams will play. Not sure if it is because a lot of stations won't stream without giving out personal information first such as zip codes, etc.

Also stations that at one time streamed will no longer stream. Example http://player.listenlive.co/35701

So I end up needing to open a browser to go to the website. Ideas are appreciated.

Using
Kubuntu 12.04
VLC 2.08

Thank you. I tried to find the direct link by looking at the source through Firefox. How and where did you find that direct link. There are other stations that I want to find direct links. :)
