Not worth the download
justanotheruser333- Pros
- About the only thing I liked about this program is what it claims to do.
- Cons
- The interface is bulky, you can only play ONE song; no playlists, the program does not run in the background (the gigantic interface has to be up at all times). And most importantly every time you close the program, it clears out the alarms that you set. My search continues...

Excellent Morning Wake-Up
cathat52- Pros
- The program makes me happy to hear my favorite song in the morning as it flashes two colors in my eyes of my choice and displays a welcome message that I can type.
- Cons
- I had to do a lot of rendering to my computer options so that the screen is black at night and that it will flash my colors during the wake-up time. I had to set my black screen-saver to go on after two minutes. And I had to change it so that it wouldn't show my computers Welcome Screen everytime my screensaver would come on. I also had to change my energy settings so that the cumputer wouldn't go on standby and the screen wouldnt shut off after 2 hours from being away.

Developer’s Description
New features in this version include: supports multiple alarms, supports recurring alarms, enhanced song selection dialog with sorting and searching and Customizable Wake Up message. Alarm Clock is an alarm-clock application that will interface with iTunes and allow you to choose any song in your iTunes library to play at a certain time.
This functions quite well as an alarm clock hence its name. Since the program invokes iTunes/Quicktime to play the music directly, even DRM songs from the iTunes music store will play without problems. However do not worry if you do not have iTunes, the application also can play MP3 files directly, in which case it will use Windows Media to play the file. Version 2 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
