Hmm, definitely something weird going on with that stream. Tried it with
SS 6.5.4 - didn't work. Then tried with Foobar - no go. Winamp 5.5 plays
the stream, but the music is corrupted (sounds like those hiccups you
get from playing a scratched cd). XMPlay, however, plays the stream
flawlessly.

It looks like it's a variable bit rate stream (Winamp reports it as
fluctuating between 110-125 kbps) - maybe that's what is causing
trouble?

Stream info in Winamp looks weird too:

Network received: 1169849 bytes
Content-Type: text/plain
Stream name: opbmusic

Below is what stream info for a "normal" Shoutcast stream looks like:

Network received: 266677 bytes
Server: Firehose Ultravox/SHOUTcast Relay Server/Linux v2.5.5
Content-Type: audio/mpeg
Metadata received: 90 bytes
Metadata interval: 24576 bytes
Stream name: SomaFM presents: Indie Pop Rocks! [SomaFM]
Current title: A Northern Chorus - Red Carpet Blues


Too bad it doesn't work with SS - they play some pretty fine music.
