I got it to play!  Thanks!  I don't remember, but when I emailed her, and asked 
her for the url for her stream, I don't remember that she typed  a capital.  I 
guess that was an accident on her part.  Probably a quick email answer.  Pam.

  hi all,
  i've been read this topic replys an what i found out is, many of you does not 
know what is the rules for a working internet address or URLs. please read this 
email carefully and if you can't understand word-by-word, please read this 
letter-by-letter. i hope this will rep up this thread.

  original sender: George and Pamela Dominguez:
  * this person has made a very big mistake on typing in the urls for us, here 
is the mistake url:

  http://mac/mystreamingserver.com/rollyestream.m3u

  there is two reason why this url can't play at all for many of you, but no 
one of you has pointed out the mistake.
  1. in a working internet addresses, there will be no slashes "/" in between 
"http://"; and ".com, .net, .org, etc".

  2. in most reason, the capital letter found in an internet addresses is very 
important, especially those after ".com/, .net/, .org/, etc".

  here is the working url:
  (please read this url letter-by-letter and tell me what is the mistake 
compared with the above url.)

  http://mac.mystreamingserver.com/Rollyestream.m3u

  to Marty and Golden, your question ask,
  "how can i get the IP address if that link is not working?"

  answer:
  part of the answer is at above, the second part is, how can i get the IP 
address. when i get the url working in winamp as shown above, i save that 
stream in a playlist file ".m3u" or ".pls" and later i open that playlist file 
with notepad, there was the IP address came from.

  http://206.67.57.250:8000/Rollyestream

  so, you can either listen to the same radio with one of the following method:
  http://mac.mystreamingserver.com/Rollyestream.m3u
  http://206.67.57.250:8000/Rollyestream

  note:
  1. please don't type-in the urls manually as you may key-in it wrongly. 
especially to George and Pamela Dominguez. just copy from this email and paste 
it to your winamp.

  2. i have tested the above working urls with the following player and 
versions:
  winamp: 5.13, 5.24, 5.35 and 5.50
  windows media player: 9, 10 and 11

  so, don't have reason you people can't play it.

    hi,
    please read the URL given by the original poster letter by letter, then you 
will see the mistake. reply to me if you still can't figure it out.

    Hi Alan, how did you obtain an ip address from the stream if it wasn't
    working?  I tried the .m3u with port 8000 after it, maybe I'll knock
    off the .m3u extension, and see if that yields the same thing, but the
    stream didn't play.
