A/C Compressor failure

My A/C blows cold, but a few days ago a grinding sound started. My X5 ate a belt, which I replaced. The tensioner is in good shape, but the noise is only getting worse. I tracked it down to the A/C compressor. Sounds like the pulley bearing is shot. Has anyone replaced the bearing? Is it possible? If not, has anyone replaced the compressor itself? Writeups make it look fairly straightforward, but any insight would be appreciated. Thanks, all.
