AOL Music No Player?

[bierkenstock]

Since AOL Music dropped the limits on listening time and added the XM channels, my radio@netscape stand-alone player (previously Spinner) no longer works. AOL Music works fine in Internet Explorer (but not Firefox, which is what I normally use) but the radio@netscape player no longer works. Of course, can't get any kind of reply from AOL Music. The player freezes during "step 3" of the loading process. Is the stand-alone player no longer supported? AOL runs announcements in the audio stream asking listeners to write if they have technical problems with the new XM audio stream; did they change something and now the stand-alone player is obsolete? There is no longer a download link on the AOL Music webpage but there still is one on the Netscape website. I have tried re-downloading and re-installing the player, and using system restore to go back to when the player did work. No luck.

I don't know what the problem is because I use AOL Radio off the AOL site. But all the channels are working except the 80's Dance channel. It just say's loading. Anybody getting this? I miss hearing Freestyle music on this stream.
