This script, by B. Galliart, will let you play XM Radio Online in Linux. You must have curl, and either xine, gxine, totem-xine, or vlc installed with basic codecs.

Save the script as xmonline.sh, change the username and password, uncomment the player you want to use, I recommend xine (gxine, totem-xine and vlc work well also),

  1. chmod it
  2. chmod a+rx xmonline.sh

  3. Then run it from console
  4. ./xmonline.sh 22
    where 22 is the channel number.

Also, the Mozilla/Firefox plugins for gxine, vlc, or mplayer can play directly from XM Online.
