Yup; ooTunes is a bit awkward to use (although fully accessible) but it will bring in streams when few other apps will. For instance, it will bring in streams direct from the team websites for all NHL teams when other players won't. Even TuneIn Radio (which I like very much and which has a more sensible interface -- also accessible) won't get 'em all.

I was thrilled when Mike Freeman gave the OOTunes solution.  After that, things worked well on my end.

My AT&T phone worked everywhere I tried it.

Hopefully the two of them can work something out to reduce the nickel-and-dime effects somewhat.  I certainly have no objection to the hotel making money—but the incidental fees are both too high and too frequent to be comfortable.  There isn’t even lobby wifi access without a fee, and the hotel is full of cellular dead zones.
