 Wim: Like it very much!
Since screamer radio stopped I found this package a good choice.
Any possibility of more options like setting buffer-size, record only 1 (current) song and then stop recording.
Also sometimes a blockage (configurable option!) of starting more then 1 instance of the player is preferable ? [2009-10-06 09:12]

 someone: Very nice program. Just started using it. Simple and cool. Thanks to this site and to the dev. [2009-10-06 15:04]

 Arno: I installed it a few days ago. I couldn't stand my setup with audacity... I LOVE IT!! [2009-10-08 14:47]

 Transcontinental: There is a version 2.0.886 BETA available on the developer's download page which in my opinion runs even better. [2009-10-10 05:53]

 James21: This is great! I tried Screamer for awhile. Most of the stations didn't work. This is working amazing. Love it. Great job and Thanks! [2009-10-20 17:32]

 Webfork: Simple, clean, and easy. Has up to date and working radio stations listed with all the information you need to choose the best locations for music.

So far the best portable radio software on the site. [2009-11-11 15:49]

 -.-: i love thtis too, i like how you can add channels and record :D and it is portable path too

but anyone know if it looks for and updates channels each startup or do we have to go download it somewhere? [2010-03-28 04:02]

 HrWasp: I have used this little jem for a short time, the latest beta is great. Thank you. [2010-03-28 09:06]

 Tom: Note: the latest version has portable paths by default. No need to change it by hand. [2010-03-28 15:09]

 ikke: Sorry, just like screamer this is useless.
About half of the stations in the database are outdated or just don't work.
Try some dutch stations. Almost none of them are working. The database needs a big overhaul. [2010-03-30 15:46]

 webfork: I did a comparison between this program and screamer http://portablefreewarereviews.blogspot.com/2010/03/radiosure-portable-vs-screamer-portable.html. [2010-03-31 19:12]

 Faust: ikke, the DB is in text format. You can overhaul it yourself. [2010-04-14 06:57]

 Yep: Yes, the DB that comes with the exe is a bit old, but the database is constantly being updated via crowdsourcing. Try here to download the latest db: http://www.radiosure.com/stations/

And make sure you sign up and help correct any errors you find. [2010-04-20 19:46]

 -.-: noticed the new version cant minimize to icon tray on Winxp... but old version still works well :D [2010-06-21 06:45]

 Midas: As a former Screamer Radio user, I've switched over to this since v1.8x -- it couldn't yet buffer songs then (for recording from the beginning) but it can now, but the overall user experience was much smoother, if only at the cost of a somewhat more encumbering interface.

@Webfork: great review, but in need of updating (RS does currrently support pls, for example)

@ikke: as Yep mentioned, the station guide is crowd sourced at the URL he posted. If the Dutch info is outdated, you could update it online, it would then get automagically updated in the program. Plus, it has a local favorites file ('mystations.rsd' is a plain text tab separated file that resides in the program folder)... [2010-06-21 11:02]

 Nani: About minimize to icon tray, I change the skin e now it´s working, but in the default skin still don´t work. [2010-06-21 17:34]

 TT: Versions after v.951 don't work at all with WinXP SP1 or SP2. Error reports as...

"The procedure entry point DecodePointer could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll." [2010-06-23 18:06]

 jaden: 2.1.969 wouldn't run on Win7 x64. The previous version works great. [2010-06-24 00:29]

 Sasan: WOW, ONE Word "Excellent", this is brilliant. [2010-06-24 00:57]

 yepp: "Versions after v.951 don't work at all with WinXP SP1 or SP2."

So upgrade to SP3 already. [2010-06-24 01:28]

 TT: New versions of Visual Studio and C++ seem to be 'breaking' Win2000, XPsp1, and XPsp2, perhaps to force people to upgrade. Unfortunately, not everyone is willing or able to 'upgrade' their OS just because a lone app won't run. Rev. 2.1.951 still works okay. [2010-06-24 17:20]

 Farauanu Emanuel: This app is really usefull. Some stations don't work, but that isn't the app's fault. There are some really beautiful stations there. [2010-07-12 21:41]

It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
