That's not strictly true; using the 'h' option Z! can stream without the 
aid of the browser. Run Z!, the file selection screen appears. Type h, 
type the sort of music you want, hit enter - all of which Don seems to 
have done correctly. After a few seconds the filelist fills with station 
names. Use the cursor keys to select one, hit enter. Z! should switch to 
the 'playback' screen, fill its buffers and start playing.

The error 5045 suggests that Z! isn't working properly. Will it play a 
standalone mp3 file? What configuration options have been used (start Z! 
with z -c)?
