Well, using the commandline that you sent me:

mplayer http://scfire-ntc-aa02.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1040

I can play the music.  That kind of eliminates codec problems and so on.
(Though I'd still like to know where you found that link on the 977music.com
page -- I just looked and I can't find it at all.)

However, trying to play music from that page has gone from bad to worse.  Now
when I try to click on one of the links from the main page
(http://www.977music.com) all I get see in my Firefox window is a gray screen
that says "stopped" at the bottom.  Clicking to a different Firefox tab and
back to the tab with the 977music on it still shows me the screen on the other
tab.  In other words, it's not writing anything to that screen at all.  It's
not frozen -- I can still click "back" and go back to the main 977music
homepage.
