I'm trying to listen to XM Online on my new MacBook and when I try to listen I get this message: Some content on this page requires an Internet plug-in that Safari doesn’t support. The application “Windows Media Player” may be able to display this content. Would you like to try?

Is there a way to get around this?

Yes, use a Windows machine. :black:
From the sound of it, looks like the site is using some sort of Windows DRM so you won't be able to use a Mac to listen.

Try it and see what happens. Safari is telling you that it does not have the plug-in to play the stream and if you`d like to listen, it needs to launch WMP. If you have other browsers installed, try listening again from there and see what player it launches to tune in the stream.

I think it should. Have you downloaded and installed Flip4Mac?
