RipCast for Windows

User Reviews

• Worked great while the company was around...

  BrassEyeMay 22, 2015

  Pros

  Recorded every stream I threw at it, for over 10 years. Still works like a charm even now

  Cons

  No longer can be upgraded. Abandonware.

  Summary

  Xoteck closed a sometime around 2012 (website is now a parked page for sale), so there's no way to upgrade to paid. Works great with Shoutcast and Icecast. Can record long single-file shows or in smaller files (dependent on ID3 tags in the files played on the stream). Even works in Windows 8.1 with no issue. Sad that it's gone the abandonware-route, it was my go-to for SC records.

• Such a change to have uninterrupted music!

  CJJ2000December 5, 2007

  Pros

  I use ripcast mainly for listening to classical stuff. The main advantage over trad radio is that you get to hear the whole piece, not just snippets

  Cons

  The only drawback is deciding which station to listen to (though the bowser is very helpful)

• Version 1.9 is total crap, does not work.

  October 2, 2007

  Pros

  Cons

  Instructions indicate user should click "tune in" button, followed by "open" option. I tried two pages of stations (more than 40) and "open" was never presented as an option. This software does not work. Do not expect any support.

• No customer service; charged me for useless serial #.

  robbinmcoFebruary 21, 2007

  Pros

  Enjoyed the product for a few years, in '03 & '04, upgraded & paid for it (when the free version w/no download limits was around). It is integrated with a good streaming radio site...

  Cons

  After a pc crash, I tried it again months later; no more free version available (the trial limits you to downloading around 35MB at a time) so I bought it online, again; but a useless serial number was given to me. No customer service or response to my e-mails. A friend had the same problem as well. A waste of $18.00. Find some other software that records off your sound card when you tune in to a radio stream. Even if it costs more. RipCast turned into a disappointing RipOff.

• Best Internet Download Tool on this earth

  imex2020September 6, 2006

  Pros

  Use it for downloading MP3 format of my favorite Radio shows. Then upload it on my pda to listen !!!

  Cons

  Each time you close the program you must reload the station you are downloading. It seems that the IP address changes and this is why you must constantly put in the last IP address
