Most of the time I use Opera, and am increasingly using Firefox. I have tried
having Opera report itself as Moz and IE when necessary, but still doesn't seem
to work with sites such as Rhapsody and Napster. For Live365, I'm simply
downloading the stream file to ~/music/Live365 and renaming it from play.pls to
something representing the station. It's a few extra steps, but seems to work
fine with XMMS. Now I'm sitting here in Prog Rock heaven ;-)
Now I just have to experiment with different MP3 sites.

That's a good sign then. I'm guessing I'll have at least some luck. 
Thanks a lot!
