I did not fully install or add additional software.
deanks- Pros
- None. I did not want to take the chance on installing the additional software.
- Cons
- Do you want additional software?
- Summary
- If you're a gambler you may take a chance on this.
Disappointing
meliel- Pros
- The program did not work and has a primitive UI. The only pro was the editors choice which convinced me to try the program. The editor who chose it was probably hung over.
- Cons
- This program loads illegal online gambling software and encourages its installation. It even put a link for the install in my Start Menu. Do not install this program.
- Summary
- This product does not work. This product is a conduit for illegal online gambling. It is a disgrace to cnet that they gave it an editor's choice.
Didn't Work for me.
MrAndyLA- Pros
- Not sure...
- Cons
- Downloaded and installed okay, but when I tried to use it, it would neither list any stations or let me manually search them.
- Summary
- Perhaps its user error or my machine, but for the moment it doesn't work.
Piece of crap
dougdownload- Pros
- It is free, but it's not worth it.
- Cons
- I installed it and ran it, selected ROCK stations and it didn't find any. So I tried TALK, none found. I couldn't get it to find a single station.
- Summary
- Not worth your time.

ignorantmonkey- Pros
- Used to be great. I had it on my older computer. Now this is a new one with a fresh Windows XP installation and have just downloaded it but doesn't work. When you click to get the available stations always says that it found 0 stations.
- Cons
- Doesnt work. Can't find any station. I'm with internet access. FOllowed all the recommendations and just ZIP...ZERO!
- Summary
- Won't find any station no matter what you do.
One of the best I have used..
bob allenm- Pros
- One of the few that can obtain song title & artist from station it is playing and use it to name the file that it recorded. Excellent and detecting end of songs and starts a new file.
- Cons
- Nothing to complain about.
- Summary
- I highly recommend it. Even though you get saddled with a Casino web site when you install.
It worked very well and had alot of stations.
mabocc- Pros
- It was very good although some of the stations disappeared after a time,.
- Cons
- It seemed to stop working , especially the manual search yielded nothing for the beatles. However perhaps my copy got corrupted some how and I may retry it in the future.
- Summary
- When it worked it was terrific. Luckily I book marked alot of the stations to winamp.
Does not present any stations
aa787- Pros
- quick download
- Cons
- (1) When I select a genre, it presents 0 stations to play, therefore useless. (2) It will not stream off your sound card. (3) It pretends it is doing you a favor by downloading spinpalace instead of malware. (4) No uninstaller is included.
- Summary
- Does not work
