by HonestReviews, 3 years ago4-25-24: Another example of an addon that is "recommended" and is junk. Requires frequent reinstalls. disconnects often. SLOW to load, cumbersome GUI. Can't find stations because his server or net connection sucks. Junk Junk Junk.
Banned by Brave as "malware".
7-4-23 update: What can you say about an addon that never gets any better? Still painfully slow server response. Author can't figure out a way to place cookies so you don't have to reinstall the program everytime you clear data on you browser. Won't work on portable browser I use. Tiresome having to reinstall the addon every time because it can't keep your ID settings. PITA GUI with too many settings and clicks needed to set it up. You'd think Mozilla would be able to attract better add-on authors for radio but they are content with recommending junky addons. I guess we are stuck with this crippleware as none of the others are any better and mostly worse.
5-2-23: Among all the terrible radio addons this one is the best of the worst. Requires frequent reinstalls to work. SLOWWWW server response. Many breaks in audio feed can't handle intensive cpu operations without breaking the feed. Need to reprogram to automatically remove and reinstall this crappy addon. Might have to look for a better way to listen to stations than using this slow, buggy addon. Sad. Had potential but developer can't seem to get there.
4-7-23; started off terribly then improved greatly and not month or two later back to it's old buggy behavior: sound not working, have to reinstall it. They should have a remove, reinstall button in the program you have to reinstall it all the time to get it to work. SLOW SLOW server response, must be running a commodore server and a wet string tin can net connection? No really good radio programs available last time I checked a few months ago. This is the best, but not saying much.
11-25-22 noticeable improvement in it's ability to connect to stations and keep the connection even with no cookies. That's good and welcomed upped on star hope it lasts.
10-2-22 same ol same ol-have to remove and reinstall to get it to work. Junk. No good radio addons available. WHen it does work, slow as a frozen turd in the Antaractic. I guess these addon developers must view addons as something they can practice their crap programming skills on? Stations deny connection at their whim and you can do nothing except reinstall or change browsers. Why list a station that is totally unreliable? Sound quality sucks. Drops connections if your computer goes to sleep -clip to meet 4000 characters

- Rated 3 out of 5by Noneo Yerbiz, a month agoBeing forced to pick a country before you can do anything is kinda stupid, especially since it's ignored unless you choose a country again when searching for a station anyway. When a country is selected, it downloads a list of stations for that country - something that can take quite a while in cases like the USA. Who's really gonna scroll through all that? Waste of time, data, and probably server resources.
My bigger complaint is the lack of filtering streams by stream format & bitrate. A stream using AAC+ at say 48kbps sounds about as good to me as an MP3 stream at 128kbps while only requiring about a third of the data usage, so I'd like to be able to seek those out. This doesn't even tell you what the stream's format is, let alone allow filtering for those attributes. - Rated 5 out of 5by Любов, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16474800, 3 months agoBuenos días. ¿Sería posible actualizar Radio Pontevedra (Cadena SER)? Hace unos días funcionaba perfectamente y ahora no (pasa con algunas emisoras). Si no fuese por eso le daría las 5 estrellas. Es una aplicación ESTUPENDA para escuchar la radio. Muchas gracias y un saludo.
