OK, I have a friend with only Windows Media Player. He said he wanted to listen to my radio, so I said get Winamp. Well, he just says "Naw, it will work with WMP." so, I give him a URL like this http://heyguesswhatshere.itsmyip:8000/
He put's it in the Open screen, and when it's about to connect, it's says "Could not connect. Could be an unsoported filetype or Microshaft needs to die."

Well, then in my DNAS, it says something like:

[dest:localhost]Starting stream[NSplayer version 4]
[dest:bunchofzeros]Stream closed at 0 seconds[NSPlayer v.4]

Couldn't connect my arse. Course they probably don't know what that is :p

Shoutcast does not work with WMP. The ICY headers makes it crap it's pants.

hehe... I told him it wouldn't work. But good for those suckins who won't download anything that's not made by Microshittes
