OK, but using dillo doesn't change things...

It did for me...

I'm in dillo now. Clicking on the program opened up a tabbed window:

http://www.virginradio.co.uk/listen/

Clicking the arrow opened a directory for where to download
'live.pls' .  This loaded with 'xmms live.ps'

Edit: In Firefox you can rt click the 'play now' button on the Virgin Radio Player window, and save the .pls file with 'save link'.
You know, it might be interesting to develop a damnsmalllinux radio station for use in the xmms menus. It could launch a variety of playlists that all include selections of legally licensed music in a streaming playlist.

Not only would a dedicated DSLRadio station guarantee that none of the links in the menu would go stale, but it would also be an opportunity to promote musicians who produce music under free/open licenses.

There are already meta-sites, like 'live365' that catalogue thousands of stations...all of which work with xmms.

I'm aware that there are already sites out there, I'm talking about adding some of their playlist urls to the damnsmall menus. I think it would be pretty slick to load up a livecd and have a series of links to different genre's or stations.

Similar to the xmms news feed, but a bit more robust of a selection.
