Hi All,
Is it possible to play pls files in the core audio.Like the playstation
files available in different internet radio broad caster sites?
Thanks in advance
Arnab

PLS files are "playlists" not audio files. You need to open the playlist file and extract the URL of the MP3, AAC or other format file, then use that URL with the appropriate File streaming APIs.  The iPhone will play streaming MP3 and AAC. A Mac with OS X will play more streaming formats. iTunes does the URL extraction automatically.

See this for more details:
