# Shoutcast is a server software for audio streaming. It automatically spools
# station information on shoutcast.com

# It has been aquired by Radionomy in 2014, since then significant changes
# took place. The former YP got deprecated, now seemingly undeprecated.

#   http://wiki.winamp.com/wiki/SHOUTcast_Radio_Directory_API 








#





# But neither their Wiki nor Bulletin Board provide concrete information on
# the eligibility of open source desktop apps for an authhash.
#
# Therefore we'll be retrieving stuff from the homepage still. The new
# interface conveniently uses JSON already, so let's use that:
#
#   POST http://www.shoutcast.com/Home/BrowseByGenre {genrename: Pop}
#
# We do need a catmap now too, but that's easy to aquire and will be kept
# within the cache dirs.
