RadioShark for Windows and Mac OS X

Quantrell writes "Ars Technica has done a very thorough review of the AM/FM radio time-shifting device radioSHARK. I was surprised when I read it, because I thought it was Mac-only. Actually the device has good Windows support, and their review shows that some of the problems experienced by early adopters have been solved with recent updates to the product. That said, there are actually some considerable flaws with the product, so buyer beware." There's a lot more meat on this review than this story which was a lot more glowing of a review.

    Seeing as almost all of our local stations have been consumed by mega-corporations such as Clear Channel. We have nice exciting playlists that repeat about once a half hour.
    I guess for sports, national public radio and the like this might be a cool thing. Or for college radio shows that play at odd hours (it always seems that the only shows I like are on at 3 in the morning).

    I'm surprised RadioShack isn't suing them over the name.

    Does looking "cool" really sway people that much?

    It works for Apple, car companies, clothing manufacturers, et al ad nauseum. So... yes :)

    One existed but sadly ClearChannel sent cyborgs back in time to kill the inventor.
