I'm trying to get one line of source from a website and then I'm returning that line back to main. I keep on getting an error at the line where I define InputStream in. Why am I getting an error at this line?

public class MP3LinkRetriever
{
    private static String line;

public static void main(String[] args)
{
    String link = "www.google.com";
    String line = "";

    while (link != "")
    {
        link = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please enter the link");

        try
        {
            line = Connect(link);
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
        }

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "MP3 Link: " + parseLine(line));


        String text = line;

        Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit( ).getSystemClipboard()
        .setContents(new StringSelection(text), new ClipboardOwner()
        { 
            public void lostOwnership(Clipboard c, Transferable t) { } 
        });

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Link copied to your clipboard");

    }
}

public static String Connect(String link) throws Exception { 

    String strLine = null; 
    InputStream in = null; 
    try { 
        URL url = new URL(link); 
        HttpURLConnection uc = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); 

        in = new BufferedInputStream(uc.getInputStream()); 

        Reader re = new InputStreamReader(in); 

        BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(re); 

        int index = -1; 

        while ((strLine = r.readLine()) != null && index == -1) { 
            index = strLine.indexOf("<source src"); 
        } 

    } finally { 
        try { 
            in.close(); 
        } catch (Exception e) { 
        } 
    } 

    return strLine; 
} 


public static String parseLine(String line)
{
    line = line.replace("<source", "");
    line = line.replace(" src=", "");
    line = line.replace("\"", "");
    line = line.replace("type=", "");
    line = line.replace("audio/mpeg", "");
    line = line.replace(">", "");

    return line;
}

}
