I'm also VERY interested in supporting this effort. I purchased my SB
Radio specifically to stream SiriusXM, and I'm now unable to do so. My
computer is on 24/7/365, so a plugin solution would work very well for
my situation. 

I'll be anxiously following this forum for updates on the situation.
Thanks to all who can contribute their efforts to get past this
roadblock.
