Well we certainly can't fault ShoutCast if a URL is no longer
streaming.  But all of my ShoutCast streams saved to favorites are all
still on ShoutCast, it's just ShoutCast "re-shuffling" the streams.  
:(

Maybe some plugin developer will come up with the Stream Checker idea
from within SC7 to at least alert us to bad links.  Kinda like what AM
Dead Link does for IE for checking dead Favorites/Bookmarks.   :)  This
doesn't solve the problem but would certainly make it more manageable.
