Just ignoring Icy-MetaData would make it work out-of-the-box with MPlayer and
Winamp (noicyx simply does not set that one). Without any metadata like what
is currently playing etc. though.
I can't say what they'd have to do to achieve that though, as said it seems to
be some custom-hacked webserver, not something standard like icecast or
similar.
