while the rest of the plain webpage text stays displayed on the page. Whether that expected browser's-default HTML player appears in your particular browser or not, alternatively the MPV line following immediately underneath invokes the open-source mpv player to receive the same live stream from that first address in a different way. Click on that link and it opens a new page with the same stream playing in a player that is not built into the browser, and there is no text on this page either, only the browser's "external player" itself appears this way. Now using Windows Media Player or something like Celluloid in Linux, you can directly open the address of the stream itself without any browser at all. Start your local player app then open a "Location" rather than a file, where you then enter the address of the stream instead of a filename. IRC is just icing on the cake so it can take requests. I stop way shorter than that, I've been very happy when I reached "all music all the time, no ads, no talk" and stopped there. With Windows 98, since then I've been partying nonstop like it's 1999 ever since ;) This also fulfills that nicely.
