Harv, Save the URI as a playlist. In your favorite editor, just type the URI and save it as, for example, "wxpr.m3u". When you click (or double-click depending on your fm/wm) that file, it should open in whatever you have associated with playlists. That's probably xmms. PS--please remove the reply-to in your mailer as replies should go to the list. HTH, Todd
