2. When I try to change a channel. If the channel takes a long time to change, the app is basically frozen. Telling you this is the best way I can describe what is happening. If you change the channel after listening for an extended period of time and it seems to hang while "tuning" in to the next channel, that is the same behavior I face when it randomly hangs.
3. Related or not, yesterday I noticed that while it was trying to reconnect or buffer or something, the EXIT option was grayed out on the Menu.

Thanks for the info. I'm going to start testing the XM stream in more detail. My concern is that this might be a Windows Media Player issue, because I simply fetch the URL from XM and pass it to the embedded player. Why it locks up my application is yet to be determined.
It could take a few days of testing before I can reproduce this with enough regularity to fix it.
