Thanks. It says that I can use the URL by appanding
listen.pls as in 
http://194.109.227.136:8000/listen.pls

In this case it still wanted to drag down some
multibegabyte files. What happened?

Thanks 
SG

you read:
Well the simplest method is using your SHOUTcast servers built in Web
server, this feature has a listen link already built in with all the correct
information.  So all you have to do is link to it from an outside source.
How do you do that, quite simple, just use this HTML code:
<a href="http://myserverip:port/listen.pls">Click Here to
Listen</a>

*What you missed was "Well the simplest method is using your SHOUTcast
servers..."
This is Icecast, not SHOUTcast.

Try using an actual .pls file like the page describes.
