Icecast dev - Sep 2017 - Please make permanent playlist URLs

I've noticed that playlist urls change over time. Thismakes it 
impossible to use them in a playlist (or to use them for other services 
like radio-browser.info) for long-term use 
(http://dir.xiph.org/listen/576154/listen.m3u expired today for example).


Why don't you use permanent playlist file names?

Then we at radio-browser.info don't have to download 
http://dir.xiph.org/yp.xml to fix broken playlists on the Icecast Radio 
Directory, that will save you bandwidth.
