OK, I dug more into this and found it's not a SlimServer problem at all.
It's just that SoftSqueeze won't seem to play the stream that comes out
of a Live365 broadcast through the SlimServer.  If I plug Windows Media
Player (ugh) into port 9000/stream.mp3, then I get the sound.

By the way, all those "would have blocked" things were a total false
alarm.  It was reading from the HTTP socket fine.

OK, so that leads me to two questions:
1) Anyone know why SoftSqueeze would be unable to play a 24kbps stream
coming from Live365?
2) If I buy a SB2, am I going to have the same problems?  Or is it a
SoftSqueeze thing.

I was playing a VIP stream last night for hours on a SB2, no troubles. The SB2 also overcomes the S/PDIF output sampling rate limitations, so you can play Live365 and other low bitrate streams via a digital connections.
