iHeartRadio location aware services
Answered
Recently picked up a NAD CI580, loving all the streaming services, the only issue I am having so far is iHeartRadio, the following KB article (https://support1.bluesound.com/hc/en-us/articles/200870248) mentions that iHeart is Available in Australia, however when I login to my account, it only shows the USA based radio stations for "Local Stations" under Live Radio, and none of the Australian stations, also since this is the case - none of my Favorites are available due to them being part of the iHeart Australia service.
Is there no way for this to be revamped to work out location (kind of like how the Amazon Music service works out which Music API to utilize for your location, I would assume iHeart has something similar?). I have used iHeart on my Control4 system, and it loads up the Australian radio stations.. but I would prefer to use BluOS going forward.

I have done this for some local radio stations which Tune-In no longer have, but that's a bit of a cop out considering the stations missing are part of iHeartRadio's Australian service, and then you also don't get any Metadata or Album artwork (even a static image of the station playing, you just get a "T-I" logo).
Ones like this one - which is an iHeart station have no streaming URL that I can "dig" up: https://www.iheart.com/live/iheartradio-countdown-aus-6902/
