CNET Editors' review
Jobee is a versatile media player that allows users to access online radio, television, RSS feeds, and more. Although not all of the TV channels are functional, on the whole we found Jobee to be well-designed and useful.
The program's interface is sleek and intuitive, with its major features organized using tabs. The program's Radio tab contains a long list of radio stations that are organized by genre. Some of them are online versions of real radio stations, while others exist entirely online. There's a huge variety, and the program makes it easy to add new stations. The program's TV tab is a little spottier; there aren't a lot of channels, and we had trouble getting most of them to work, although this is often par for the course when it comes to Internet TV. The program also features an RSS reader, a weather tab that can list information for multiple cities, and a media library. We weren't sure exactly how the Books tab worked; there was an option to add books, but we're not sure if it's for ebooks or audiobooks, or if the program has access to books that can be downloaded. This is where the program's lack of a Help file became a problem. For the most part, though, Jobee is very easy to use, especially if you're looking primarily for a media player.
Jobee is free. The program installs politely but leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users.

"Looks good but...."
Version: Jobee 1.0.0.788
Pros
Very promising prog - still learning it, but it handles radio & TV stations worldwide, weather etc. etc.
Cons
Very promising prog but too big for my screen meaning I've got to scroll around to see everything, even the min/max/exit boxes at top RH corner - very annoying! Lack of Help is a big disadvantage at first but learning by trial & error.
Summary
Will spend more time learning it - good fun!
