Re: Clear Channel Streams
The links to Clear Channel stations used by
www.SurfMusic.de were not directly from Clear Channel - they were grouped together by SurfMusic and were made conveniently and easily accessible via SurfMusic's "quick-link". However, as you mentioned, that quick-link was disabled back in April, possibly via request from Clear Channel in order to get more people to use the iHeart radio website and application. SurfMusic forwarded all of the Clear Channel station links to a default link - which happened to be from the now-defunct webstream at the website:
www.Top40-station.com. That site and stream were in no way ever affiliated with Clear Channel or iHeart.
If you'd like to copy and paste URLs of CCM+E streams, use the list from December 2010 at the link below that has most of the Clear Channel streams (at least in most markets, not all are available from the smaller markets/stations). Also includes the Premium Choice and national show streams. Some are no longer active - may be outdated, discontinued, changed format, etc.
The stream links are the long URLs with the words "...akacast.akamaistream.net..." included twice within the URL:

For the most part, even if call letters and formats change for a station on a particular link, the same link usually continues to work for the new station.
A similar listing from what appears to be about the same time period is available at this link:
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/143885003/iheartradio
The same list in a "web-cached" look so that copy and paste functions work (go towards the bottom of the page and use the document window with the sliding side bar - slide down about halfway to see the streaming URLs):
http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...MJ:www.docstoc.com/docs/143885003/iheartradio
Other sites that have some Clear Channel/iHeart radio stream URL links:
www.radiosure.com,
www.reciva.com.
********************************
As for the overnights (time may vary by station), as mentioned in previous posts:
some AC and oldies stations are taking the "Classic Lite" national feed (primarily soft rock from the mid-late 1960s/early-mid 1970s).
Some classic rock stations take the "Classic Rock" national feed.
Some of the top 40/CHR stations may take the "Hit Nation" national feed or replay their morning show (usually one of the Premiere Choice nationally syndicated shows).
