 Worth the money July 15, 2010
JRB (Buffalo, NY)
I bought one in March 2010 for $7.99 w/free shipping directly from one of the same stores that sells them through Amazon. The price was so good I just had to try out one of these little gadgets. I'm sure if you look around you can find a good price. They do sell used ones on Amazon Prime for $9.99. It works as advertised on all my computers:
PC1: Windows 7 64bit (Gateway)
PC2: Windows 7 32bit (Dell)
Netbook: Windows 7 Starter (Toshiba)
I find it much more convenient than searching for stations on the web, or using other software solutions. A big advantage of this device is that it uses very little resources. On the netbook & Dell PC it doesn't use more than 12,000kb RAM. A web browser playing media can easily use up to 100,000kb. That can be a significant factor. Your netbook/laptop batteries will last longer. On the Dell PC I couldn't run Photoshop and have a web browser open at the same time. With this device I could still listen to internet radio while I did graphics work. It uses slightly more memory (up to 20,000kb) on the Gateway, but it's still considerably less than a browser.

This is the perfect thing for real music lovers and radio worshipers. Hours of searching all over the world for more great radio stations to add to your favorites. Easy to use and very rewarding. Stations in the netherlands are just a few of my fav's, and you use no space up on your hard drive.

Yes you get listen to stations all over the world. But I have only used it maybe three times. Is easy to install just plug into a usb port and your done. So whyI have only used rarely? I have a program similar to this already in my computer. But if you need this it works and works very well.
