 xmms is not.
 
Yeah...you're right. x11amp IS includedweird... :-) I can't
believe they included x11amp instead of xmms. :-) OH, well...now I"ve
got both installed. :-) BTW, if you go to www.x11amp.org, you'll see
a note there stating that there HAS, indeed, been a name change to
xmms. Also the version included in Mandrake is kinda old...
0.9_alpha3. 0.9-final is out and they're continuing development as
xmms. :-)
Anyway, it's not really worth arguing overbut if you like it, you
might want to consider going and getting the latest version from
xmms.org. :-)

Take a look at http://www.freeamp.org/ they claim to support
streaming.  I haven't tried this yet but I have been meaning to.

Does it support streaming via URL?  I like to listen to Geeks In Space,
but don't want to download the whole thing or fire up RealPlayer to
listen.

 in anyone's eye when 6.0 came out.  You can't ship what hasn't been
 created yet!  :)

Ahhthat explains it. :-)

Hmm..that I'm not sure about I believe it is SUPPOSED to do
so...might want to check the xmms page to be sure. At least it has a
"play location" option... :-)
