This is a specific shoutcast error. Probably an anti-ripper hack. ( http://all-streaming-media.com/streaming-media-faq/faq-SHOUTcast-ripper.htm
).
I found it was the user-agent by comparing the request send by Safari
(that works) and the one send by my test application (using Wireshark
to sniff the request and the response: http://www.wireshark.org/ ).

Hi,
Awesome!!!!
Thanks very much for all the detailed information.It is working
perfectly and initially I got the response as "Response status: 403,
forbidden" and once I framed the request "[request
setValue:@"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_5; en-us)
AppleWebKit/528.5+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/528.1"
forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"];" it worked
perfectly and I got a 200 OK response.
One thing I would like to know from where can I get these
information about how the server understands the different types of
request from "Unknown Server" ?
Thanks
Arnab

And another point. It look like shoutcast (for silly reason
probably) forbidden request from unknown user agent.
To workaround this problem, just set the request user agent to
something shoutcast know, for example:
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:
[NSURL
URLWithString
:@"http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=9907";]];
[request setValue:@"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X
10_5_5; en-us) AppleWebKit/528.5+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0
Safari/528.1"
forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"];
