    Not Familiar With 10.4.8

    MacBook - Tiger. Used to running applications with 10.3.9. What utility is used to open an application such as Windows Media Player? Windows Media.dmg is the file name that is downloaded on the desktop. Why can't it be recognized?

    Would that support the streaming from Sirius Radio?

    You could give it a try.....FLip4Mac should support most of the WIndows Media formats out there, including streaming. Give it a try and see.

    WMP 9 is going to be running under Rosetta, so it'd be a good idea to check out Flip4Mac..
