I am trying out the following

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"
http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=9907";];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:URL];
                    [data writeToFile:@"/tmp/station.pls" atomically:YES];

But unfortunately no such files gets generated.Can you suggest me the
approach I need to proceed with this.
Thanks
