I totally agree.

I don't. I'm not connected to SQN and see the same problem with Shoutcast streams: no way to connect to them. Not even to those I have stoed in my favorites and am listening to several times a week. OTOH I've been listening to some RadioIO stream for more than 6h today.

The problem with Shoutcast is the same as always: if you use www.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls... as the playlist link (which all the items under Internet Radio -> Shoutcast do), the SN IP address will get banned quickly for making too many requests. I want to cache all the station playlists but can't because crawling the directory is against the rules and results in an instant ban. Maybe we should just remove support for Shoutcast altogether...

No idea why Sky.fm doesn't work for you, most of the mp3 stations listed in PIcks are working fine here. Some look like they just need updating as they return ICY 404 not found.
