Andy,

Thanks for the update. TO be honest, I'm not sure I like the changes. I
no longer have any setup options under Server Settings. Also, I cannot
filter to display high bitrate stations. I have to click on each
retunred link when I search to find the stream I want. I'll have to
play with the settings a bit. It seems like the intention is have users
manually add stations or browse by genre rather than facilitating
exploration from a list.

As for your response about the Top 500 stations, I'm confused. Why
would the AAC stations be filtered out? If this is due to an inability
of the SB to play them, why would they even count in the total? If I
click Top 500, I would have expected to see 500 stations. If the SB can
play them, I would have expected to see them displayed. The 35 station
display is a major issue to me. Should I register this as a bug? Do you
think something was corrupted when I upgraded? Also, you said "they"
limited the number of stations available in the feed. Who is "they"?
Shoutcast?

I'm trying to get a handle on where the design of Shoutcast radio is
going. It seems like there are a lot of changes. FWIW, I just launched
Winamp and the number of Shoutcast stations is now much smaller there
too, which leads me to the conclusion that Shoutcast has changed their
business model. Do you know what's going on?

Thanks,

Mark
