What player are the radio stations using?

I can ask the student station here, but they may not use the AAC+ format.

I think they use iTunes for playback. Not sure since a new a;; digital
studio was built last year and I haven't looked in on their new
operation.


A 20 minute check on versiontracker.com found nothing related to AAC+.
In fact oddly few audio players at all showed up there. Strange as in
the recent past I would have sworn there were many!
