Dying A/C Compressor

First chink in the armor...

It started two days ago...a whine like a supercharger, but it was coming from my A/C compressor.

I tried compressor oil today, and it's quiet only intermittently.

I'm thinking bearings, as tonight, I've started to smell burning belt.

Anyone have this problem before? I'm guessing about $800 for the dealer to fix it. It looks like a pretty straight forward to replace it, so I could do it myself, but I'm guessing $350 for a compressor. Ugh.

Any ideas?
