Just over a year ago now, a friend and I created a patch and posted to
the XMMS Bugzilla.

http://bugs.xmms.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1579

The patch enables secure mp3 and ogg streaming over an SSL https
connection.  As far as we're aware, no other media player is capable
of this.  We have been using xmms with this patch everyday for well
over a year now on several Linux distros.

This functionality was easily added by linking against openssl, and
substituting SSL_read() for read() socket calls.

Would you consider incorporating this patch in your next release?

Thanks,
Dustin Kirkland
