Title: No archive for a feed which is UP - is it still worthwhile to listen live?
Post by: rnzoli on May 11, 2017, 03:57:49 AM

Hi, I think this was covered here before but I can't find the answer.
I can see a feed UP but no link to any archive.
Can someone remind me, what is the reason for that?
Is it because the feed has absolutely nothing to archive, or is it because the feed operator requested NOT to archive their feed?

A limited number of feeds are not archived. The reason is typically because the provider does not wish them to be archived - and the reason is typically to comply with a local law, or the interpretation of a law.
