[CoLoCo] That was amazingly painless

I just tried to bring up a local radio station in Amarok, but it didn't
work. It has worked before, they just had a morning show change and I
quit listening.

So, since the MMS stream wasn't working, I thought I'd go to the site
and see if I could bring it up in the viewer/listener on their page.

Ah, that's why it didn't work - they've changed streaming companies and
it's no longer MMS, but I have to download silverlight to get it to work.

Now, I know about moonlight, but I tried it earlier and even when it was
installed it wasn't working for the site that required silverlight.

What the hell, click on the [Install Silverlight] button, see what happens.

What happened was that a moonlight installer came up with my
architecture already selected. Click, OK it, restart browser.

It actually works. The station is playing, all seems OK.

There is one thing - it says that I need some codecs to play the media
and it's a download from Microsoft. At first it wouldn't download the
license agreement and canceling that dialog killed the browser. Then it
downloaded the agreement and clicking OK killed the browser.

Next time I just canceled the download as, at least so far, I don't seem
to need them.
