Why do some shows have a lock icon instead of the blue dot?
The lock icon indicates the show is “Subscription Content” that you can access through Stitcher. This is content that requires a subscription through a different site. If you select to play one of these shows, you will see a popup asking for your login information for this show. This is the login and password you created when you subscribed to that show on the other site. Once you enter your login and password, the show will start playing and the icon will change from a blue lock to a green dot, indicating you are authorized to play the show. You only need to enter your login and password one time. Stitcher will remember that you are authorized to play this subscription show.
