This post was delayed by several days due to odd plugin behavior. Seems to be epidemic in wordpress land. Couldn’t login to the backend. After disabling all, I was back in; this may cause functionality issues with the xspf player in the meantime. I suggest clickdrag the link into winamp, and that will get you to the stream if you dont have patience or space for the download. Cheers

Update All is back to normal, after cleaning the plugins folder.
