Listening to TFC radio streams via Smart Device

In life, The People are represented by two separate yet equally important groups:
The Fates, who investigate all the possible alternatives to 'Joy';
and the forces of Chaos, who defile the fabric of The Tapestry Of Life.
These are my stories.....

One of my regular listeners (UnrenownTech) of The Wed-Night 80's Bash was kind enough to come up the instructions on how to listen in via ANDROID-based phones... and it's ready for Mass Consumption!
These instructions are customized for shows on The Feline Conspiracy's 'EVENTS' radio stream and can be altered for whatever stream you like. Normal Text is from U.T.'s instructions. I will make notes in Underlined Italics.
No one associated with The Feline Conspiracy or TFC Radio will be responsible for any date transfer / useage charges you might incur by using these instructions. PLEASE LISTEN RESPONSIBLY!
----Start----Ladies and Germs,
I bring unto thee the means to enjoy FurAffinity’s Wednesday Night
Bash (by DJ ShujinTribble).
This is as simple as I can make the process for you:
Requirements:
- Cell Phone running Android OS
- Access to Android Market (USA)
- Android App called “Retro Radio” by EarthFlare
Note: There are other “Free” apps that stream Shoutcast but the few
that I found would not let me add a custom stream (Shujin’s) to the
list.
1) Install Retro Radio from the Market and start it up
(EDIT - In case Retro Radio becomes unavailable, there is a Backup Download through my DropBox now.)
2) Bring up the Menu by pressing your phone’s Menu key (didn’t see
that one coming huh?)
3) Retro Radio’s main menu should show four (4) buttons:
a. Add
b. Info
c. About
d. Preferences
4) Tap the “Add” button
5) You should see three (3) fields:
a. Station Name
b. Website
c. Description
6) You can enter any information you choose; I did mine this way:
a. [Station Name] - Wed-Night 80's Bash
b. [Website] - http://livedj.tfcsl.com/index.html
c. [Description] - ST's Wednesday Night 80's Bash
UT's "Station Name", as you can see, isn't correct for the show's name, but that won't matter. That will be your own label on the phone's list of radio streams to choose from. DO, however, note the website's address - it is the stream's address with port number AND the "/index.html". Your stream's info should be nearly the same.
7) Under those fields you should see a circle with a green plus (+)
symbol labeled “Add Streams”; tap it.
8) You should now see two more fields:
a. Stream URL
b. Bitrate
9) It is important to add the URL exactly as you see below:
a. [Stream URL] - http://76.74.249.54:8112/listen.pls
b. [Bitrate] – This field can be left empty, it will automatically
detect it when ST is streaming the show
Obviously someone else's stream address will be different, but I'm assuming this to mean that the URL should include the trailing slash.
10) Click "Save" and you are done!
*FYI* - You will not be able to connect except when ST is actually
streaming the show (duh)…
Have a great week!

As was mentioned, iTunes should also be able to stream the show using similar naming conventions while using the stream address of http://66.135.39.207:8112/listen.pls .
EDIT Oct '14 - Added generic iTunes info
EDIT Apr '15 - Added RetroRadio DropBox Link

All the better reason to use verizon over AT&T......

Incidentally, iTunes can use that URL to listen in to the stream, methinks...

Confirmed. iTunes can listen to it, and RadioLover can record it. Gotcha on my recording schedule now!
