Everything sounds better over the radio.

Your Morning Cup Of Coffee


What I had was a MP3 collection. What I needed was radio. This was the decision I came to after months of waffling on it: did I want a MP3 player that I could hook up to some unit, and if so, what kind? Whatever it was, I wanted it to be -loud- and nobody built that.

Radio seemed the perfect solution. There are a lot of expensive geejaws that you can hook to your computer and then hook to your stereo and put you in business, but they tend to be fairly non-portable and expensive. With -true- radio, one can turn on any tuner in the house and crank it up as loud as that particular system can let you.

In this house, that can be pretty loud.

The idea of having it be more like radio and less like a souless player appealed to me. Hooking up demos of the software proved I was on to something: the output was fun. Neat to listen to. There's little station IDs and fullly announced music breaks. It doesn't even play dirty lyrics until after ten pm.

It is, in fact, just like corporate radio except the music isn't all the same and it certainly doesn't suck.
