    Found the instructions here:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060927085119420
    1. Install flip4mac - http://www.flip4mac.com/
    2. Go to preferences pane for flip4mac (in System Preferences)
    3. Select the Movie tab, and make sure that "Create streaming movies" box is checked.
    4. Go to http://www.phantomfm.com/now/phantomlive.asx in safari (might work in other browsers but I didnt try it)
    5. Click on the small triangle at the right-hand end of the controller bar below the movie and select Save as QuickTime Movie... from the pop-up menu.
    6. Save it somewhere, and drop it into iTunes
    7. I then deleted the file that was created above, I'm not sure if that step is necessary or not, but it's in my iTunes playlist now and after a longer-than-usual pause (i presume that's flip4mac firing up) phantom plays in wonderful iTunes glory.
    This was important for me because I didnt want to listen to all my music, podcasts and other radiostations in iTunes, but phantom in VLC, it seemed unnecessary.

    Hope that's a help to someone!
