The AWS servers used by LMS to be based in the Germany but they can
"move" around but AFAIK none are in the UK.

If you are using mysqueezebox.com - the problem is that an SB player can
only play a stream directly if it is given a full playable URL with a
numbered IP address.  So normally the mysb.com LMS will lookup the
requested URL, go through the playlist , get a URL, identify format and
get the IP address. However if Geo IP check is done at playlist level
then either stream will be blocked or a non UK URL is found.

The workaround used to be to get a UK IP URL for the stream, create a
mysb.com Favorite with IIRC  "#noslim=1" appended which tells mysb.com
just to pass the URL directly to player.  This was created for BBC UK
users and used to work for BBC WMA URLS not sure about any other URLs
though.
