Most aac streams do not playback directly in the browser like mp3 streams.
Is there a work around? Licensing Issues?Example AAC

No, just (once again) Chromium browsers doing stuff differently than Firefox. A content-type of
audio/aacptriggers a download instead of playback, whileaudio/mpegtriggers playback. -
@imlitimlit Seems same issue as https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/30440/shoutcast-webradio-streaming
And decoding of HE-AAC audio is not implemented in Chrome/Chromium core yet.
