CNET Editors' review
If you're going to tout yourself as a radio toolbar, it's a good idea to make sure that your defining feature works. Apparently that logic escaped the creators of the Indian Radio Toolbar.
Stretching across your Firefox window, this freeware includes all the standard toolbar features: pop-up blocker, e-mail notification, weather forecast, and more are in working order. We were able to add some of our favorite applications to the toolbar, such as MS Word and Excel. Most of the news and video links direct you to sites focused on Indian culture, but you'll find plenty of links for other popular news sites such as CNN and BBC. A ticker window on the toolbar, with a link to join an online community, is a bit annoying. The entire toolbar can be customized, though, so we were able to remove it quickly and easily. As for the radio, we simply couldn't get it to play. Its a shame, too, because there are tons of radio stations to choose from and it's easy to add your own. Since the radio didn't work, that just proved to be a waste of time.
If you're willing to forgo the radio feature and settle for standard toolbar fare, this will suffice; otherwise, skip it.

"Nice app!!"
Version: Indian Radio Toolbar 0507
Pros
Nice variety of Indian music and it plays well with all my other extensions.
Cons
It includes way too much stuff. Just the search bar and radio player would have been more than enough. Plus, all the stations don't work.
