No, the issue was on my end. After much farting about I have it working now. One of my various ad blockers and anti-trackers was blocking a cookie it requires.

Another update: - havng tested everything several times over I am of the opinion, based on the debug information on the live365 page, that there is an issue on their end.


Even with all ad blockers and anti-trackers switched off, it doesn't work. Not just your station, but any live365 station.


Live365 uses itunes and every attempt to use a station results in:

#Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://itunes.apple.com/search?country=US&media=music&limit=5&version=2&term=120%20Second%20Ad%20Break-Live365. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing). Status code: 200.


Note "country=US" - so it looks like the Live365 request to itunes is always sending country code US, and that is the issue.


When I switch on my VPN and connect to the US, it all works fine - I can successfully listen to any live365 station. Even with all my ad blockers and anti-trackers swtiched on, it works as long as I am using a US IP address.

I am pretty certain that the live365 requests always sending a country code of US to itunes has to be an error on their part, particularly since they give broadcasters the option to block or allow specific countries - a bit pointless having that option if it's always going to default the prospective listener's country code to US.


In conclusion, Live365 is a load of wank.

This issue will prohibit anyone who is either not in the US or who does not have the ability to use a VPN to connect via a US IP address from listening to your station (unless I'm missing something and I have some other cached shite which is preventing me from streaming via a non-US IP address).


Having said all that, some feedback on your station: Prince and associated artists, 24/7, what's not to like? I'll be tuning in regularly.


The only negative point - and again - live365's fault, not yours, is the annoying requirement to have 4 minutes advertising per hour, but I'm guessing all such services will have a similar requirement.

Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP.
