Hi Adam,

Here is another one:

http://radio.cbc.ca/stream/aka-radioone28.ram

I have a collection of nearly 200 audio streams and after upgrading 
mplayer to 1.0pre6, I went through the list and attempted to replace 
all my trplayer invocations with mplayer, some with and some without 
the -playlist option, and about 80 or 90 percent of them made the 
swithc okay. But a few stubborn ones would not work. Maybe my codecs 
are not current, not sure how long I have had them there.
