Listening music from url

[ebolisa]

Hi,

The code below plays music on a Raspberry pi.

Instead of selecting music files, I'd like to listen to music from an url.

Can that be possible and if so, how?
TIA

import os, random from subprocess import check_output, Popen from shlex import split # needed for Popen   url = "http://icy-4.radioparadise.com/aac-32"   MPL_COMMAND = 'mplayer -softvol -volume {vol} {file}'   def popen(file, vol):     command = MPL_COMMAND.format(file=file, vol=vol)     proc = Popen(split(command), stdout=None, stderr=None)     return proc.wait()   def play (vol=10) :     path = "/home/pi/music/"     # load files into a list     songs = os.listdir ( path )       '''if random is chosen'''     # choose a rdm number between 0 and tot of files -1     number = random.randint ( 0 , len ( songs ) - 1 )     # assign file to rdm number     file = songs[number]     file = path + file     popen ( file , vol )   play()

Solved by using the urs as a file.
