That would be awesome!  Yeah, seems to be much more stable now.  Was
able to stream Pandora overnight on 4 different players, and only 1 of
them stopped after a while.  I'm testing Slacker again now, and it's
been playing continuously for a couple of hours.

But I agree, this is a bit scary that LMS doesn't recover from issues
like this, as we're at the mercy of mysb.com having issues like this in
the future.
