This has happened to me, but not all the time.  It does it sometimes with SHoutcast streams too.  Sometimes it just doesnt end properly.

If yours is doing it 100% of the time, you could have a problem.  With me, its maybe 1 out of every 10 times, so I dont worry about it much.  <

What I find is that ALL audio only streams crash my xbox upon attempting to load any more media after the stream has stopped.  Doesn't matter if the next media is the same or different stream, local video/music, or shoutcast.  I think the XBMC guys just need to debug this part of their software. (Something with media osd)  Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
Other than this predictable error, Streams work fine.  (I think higher bitrate ones are most likely to load for me, but rarely will a 2nd attempt change the facts) Some fail somewhere in the connect dialog obviously but that is to be expected.

PS I am using xbmc 03-17-2004 with a fairly old python.rar.  (If anyone can tell me where to get a newer one, please do..)   <
