Hi, Linn, you can press alt f for file, and p for properties and press enter, while the stream in windows media player is playing, tab down to the location edit box, and copy that address to the clip board, then open up a text editor such as note pad, paste it in, and at the end of the file add the following ?SWMEXt=.wma and cut it to the clip board again, and paste this in to the open location dialog of winamp with control l and control v, and the stream should start playing in winamp.
