Used Boombox Online Radio Player for Windows?

Editors’ Review

Download.com staffNovember 7, 2008

All things considered, BoomBox Internet Radio Player is a useful tool for music seekers. The program is now free and doesn't contain adware, although you still should be alert during installation, as the program bundles an online casino program. However, you can easily get around installing it simply by unchecking the correct box. On the plus side, the number of available radio stations is enormous, and, in addition to genre details, the program tells you which song currently is playing on each station. Though not always accurate, the Now Playing feature still will give you a sense of the rotation on a particular station. Stations stream through media players such as RealPlayer and iTunes, and you can start recording at any point. BoomBox Internet Radio Player's comprehensiveness, smooth buffering, and recording functionality could appeal to audiophiles looking for alternative sources for new music.

I did not fully install or add additional software.
deanksJune 26, 2011
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
melielSeptember 26, 2010
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.
MrAndyLAApril 5, 2010
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

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.
didnt work

ignorantmonkeyMay 6, 2009
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 allenmMay 3, 2009
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.
maboccJanuary 31, 2009
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
aa787November 8, 2008
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
