Huh? What the heck does this have to do with Xming??

Answer: Nothing what-so-ever.

....neither of which will get X11 application windows on a Mac.

Seriously, what kind of drugs are you guys on?

XM Radio requires an additional fee for streaming by its paying
subscribers. Are you implying that there is a no-pay source for
streaming from its site? Is this connected with Xming?

As others have pointed out, XMing has nothing to do with XM Radio.
XMing is an X11 server for Windows.

OS X has an X11 server included as part of the distribution, but it's an
optional install. Look for the application "X11"; if you don't have it,
get out your installation disks.

I did the -o ForwardX11=yes on the SSH before but it didn't work. When
I'm sshed to the remote host, do I have to manually set the DISPLAY
environment variable to my X11 server on the mac?
Just out of curiosity.. were you ever able to do what I am trying to
do yourself?
