Ok, a while ago on another one of these topics, I said I would ask my older brother to finally put this to rest. He has a degree in English Literature at Northwestern, and he also studies a lot of history, specifically about Europe and ancient cultures. So I figured he would know. Any how, I finally got a response from him which follows...
Hi, Matt. I've been looking through my books on Icelandic sagas and Norse mythology, but none of them have a pronunciation guide. My independent conclusion would be to pronounce the word MYOL-neer (the mj like the fj in "fjord"--m as in "mom" and y as in "yard"). That's based on known pronunciations of other norse or Icelandic words.
But Wikipedia seems to indicate a pronunciation of the "mj" as the two consonants would sound in English (m as in "mom" and j as in "juice") with the "i" pronounced as an unstressed schwa sound (the vowel sound used in the unstressed syllables of most English words, such as the "al" in "cereal").
So I'm sorry that I can't give you a definitive answer, but my money is on "MYOL-neer." Take care, and I'll talk to you soon.
Enjoy the photos.

The last part about the photos are of his lastest trip to Vienna, Budapest, Munich, and Prague. He gets to go to such cool places.
Anyway, I know that his response didn't really finalize this fully, but I'd trust my brother on this subject over anything I would read on the internet.
