open http connection for audio streaming

I am trying to create an application to play a live radio.I am using the following method to open the http connection,and giving this url "http://64.62.xxx.xxxx:xxx/" But i am getting nullpointer exception,

                public InputStream OpenHttpConnection(String urlString) throws IOException
开发者_运维技巧{
    InputStream in = null;
    int response = -1;

    URL url = new URL(urlString); 
    URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();


    if (!(conn instanceof HttpURLConnection))                     
        throw new IOException("Error connecting");

    try{
        HttpURLConnection httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) conn;
        httpConn.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
        conn.setDoInput(true);
        httpConn.setInstanceFollowRedirects(true);
        httpConn.setRequestMethod("GET");
        httpConn.connect(); 
        response = httpConn.getResponseCode();
        System.out.println("Response : "+response);
        if (response == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) 
        {
            in = httpConn.getInputStream();
        }     
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        throw new IOException("Error connecting");            
    }
    return in;     
}

Is there any other way for streaming data from such kind of url or i need to add something else in the above method ??

I created an instance of the MediaPlayer.My logcat is displaying the following error :

Thanks!!

First of check the connection from the server u could use a HTTP Debugger As u want to play audio Create a mediaplayer instanse and set the filedescriptor in SetDataSource

m_player.setOnPreparedListener(this);
m_player.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
m_player.setDataSource(filedescriptor fd);
m_player.prepareAsync();
