Then what about the Sirius web player itself? If it's supposed to work, I'm
not sure what I'm missing. I've installed flash, as well as Flip4Mac, but I
can't get it to actually play any streams.

Albert,
Keep in mind that starplayr is no longer being updated. This means that,
while you can stream some of sirius's channels, you do not have access to
their online only content, which was added after starplayr's developers
moved on to other things. This also applies to channels updated in recent
months. Too bad, as I agree that starplayr was a useful app. I haven't found
anything to take its place either.

I've been wrestling with is the best way to stream Sirius. According to the
help on Sirius.com, the web player is supposed to work. I've installed
Flip4Mac, but when I try to launch a stream, I never get any audio.  The
best solution I've found so far is an app called Starplyr.
. If The VO cursor and mouse cursor are set to follow each other, I can
navigate through the list of channels, and then double click on one to start
it.  The app works, but it isn't perfect, as there are various unlabeled
controls, but it is relatively usable.  There also doesn't seem to be any
way to directly enter a channel number. So, if I'm on channel 1, and want to
go to channel 100, that means down arrowing a whole bunch of times.
