Tomorrow I will post links and instructions for updating IE browsers to MSXML 3.0. 4.0 is out now, so you might even consider going to it. It's supposed to be much faster as far as XSLT transformations go. I have not tried it yet though, so I can't vouch for it.

Tonight, here is a slightly altered version of beaker's last post. Someone else had mentioned putting buttons (icons) on the playlists for streaming and playing. Here they are, I took a couple right off of that thread. Not sure it looks all that great, but you get the idea of how this could work.
