1. Make sure you get Windows Media Player

2. Download Peercast from http://www.peercast.org/download.php

3. Start Peercast. Start Windows Media Player.

4. Use Safari to go to the Peercast Yellow Pages http://yp.peercast.org/ and search within the WMV streams

5. Select LoungeTV - Community Show - LoungeTV1

Safari will tell Peercast to catch the stream, route it to WMP, then repeat the stream for viewer N+1.

You need broadband, as it is a 300kbps stream.

Comments appreciated.

Just post some wildy ridiculous story about Steve Jobs being a gay Iranian, along with an absurd question such as, "Is this the end of Apple?" and link in your site there somewhere.
