RE: Upcoming end-of-year release(s) - fdealexa - 10-31-2023
Hi all,
it seems to me that the URL for Jazz24.org has changed from:
Code: http://live.wostreaming.net/direct/ppm-jazz24aac256-ibc1
to
Code: https://live.amperwave.net/direct/ppm-jazz24aac256-ibc1
May I suggest to include this change in the subject release?
Best regards and thanks,
Francesco
