Suggestion for the shoutcast index?

With the growing population of casts that offer firewall-piercing routing on their .pls files, perhapss there should be a checkmark box added on the right column of the site that can make the site display only those casts that are "Firewall Friendly" to aide those of us with tyrannical Sys Admins..?

you mean those that broadcast on port 80?

you know, I actually think this would be a positive step towards supplying the demand from people listening at work.

Exactly... like a little modifier checkmark box for the query to filter out the stations that people at work can't listen to. That'll not only make it easier, but I'm sure it would encourage others to start providing the same type of service.

(Exactly how is that service routed/provided, just curious?)

Work places have to leave some ports open in order for their employee's to still surf the web and such, port 80 is the standard HTTP port.
