Hi A7,
try Winamp player: www.winamp.com/player , it has the AAC codec included even in basic version. And should associate with .pls automatically.
Or find something like play/url in VLC player and copy the link adress there.

Just keep trying.
Most likely the stream was (temporarily) down when you tried that.

I remembered that my friend had similar problem and resolved it by disabling the THOMSON mp3PRO plug-in in Winamp as said under the streams.
in winamp: Options/preferences/plugins/input

the thomson mp3 pro codec is not listed anywhere in the Plugins>input window
anywhos, i tried the 32k aac stream and that worked fine so it must be a problem with the higher bitrate streams.
the OGG vorbis 128k stream seems to work with win amp so i think ill stick to this
thanx for the replies
