There's been a trend of (broadcast) radio stations not posting direct links to their streams any more, and wanting you to go through their cockamamie "web player." Nuts to that. Have now, by looking at page source code and inspector windows, discovered the direct streams for several stations I listen to, including for one particular CMS that seems to be used by several public radio stations. I, uh, fight for the users.
