hmmm, maybe viewing source code and locate the 24-hour stream and copy the link then perhaps paste it into a file on the desktop could be used to get it going. It's a bit extreme I admit, another thing about wamu and probably npr is that only registered users with accounts have full use of page resources and the 24-hour stream could be restricted until registration is taken care of.

The NPR page can be navigated with Safari 3, also, but be sure you have the group-items-in-web-pages checkbox checked, or VoiceOver will skip content. At least, that happens on my iBook G4.

I have gone to the npr.org page with tiger and safari 2.x and was able to get far enough into the page so I could listen to streaming broadcasts. I still have tiger but updated to safari 3.x and haven't gone back and tried that pae again yet.
