You have misunderstood - I just found the URLs with iHeart Plugin - you
do *not* need to have the iHeart plugin installed to play them.  Even if
iHeart plugin is installed, there is *no* need for an iHeart account to
search/play iHeart stations.

The two URLs I have posted are *not* https and so IO::Socket::SSL
version may not matter.

The second URL I posted was a plain HTTP / AAC URL so no need even for
PlayHLS plugin.

Just save this as a Favorites - no Plugin are needed to play it.

It is AAC and 64kbs so identical in audio quality to the HLS streams.

Station have started using HLS as it is more efficient but they often
keep an old stream URL but hidden for legacy players.
Similarly station often use keep http as a backup to https for legacy
users.
