There’s something uncomplicated about them.
RadioSure runs on Win XP/Vista/7.
But the yardstick of a great portability loops back to how good the app really is.
That’s where RadioSure is pretty much surefooted in its performance.
So, let’s tune it up and catch a few song streams.
A Clean Simple Look
The radio interface is as simple as it can get.
The design is like a traditional media player.
You have a small button on the right corner that can collapse or expand the radio interface.
The stations are listed by name, country, genre, and language.
You get to hear lots of FM stations too which stream online.
RadioSure supports most audio formats like mp3, wma, ogg, vorbis, aac, and more.
The track and the singer are displayed on the interface, the title bar and the status bar.
Got your own radio station on the Internet?
Add it to RadioSure by adding a few details.
RadioSure doesn’t make it obvious, but choosing stations from the 12,000+ on offer is easy.
Use the little search box on top and narrow it down.
Or you’ve got the option to go with the filters.
Right tap on the column heads and check any of the filters that are available.
scrub the search field and the filters to get the entire 12,000+ strong list of radio stations again.
Recording From The Stream
Recording tracks while it’s streaming into your machine is also uncomplicated.
You just have to toggle the red button to start and stop recording.
you could open up multiple instances of RadioSure and simultaneously record multiple radio stations on the Internet.
Skin It!
Skinning is a must have for all media players.
So it is with RadioSure.
it’s possible for you to even make yours and upload it to the site for sale.
The Listening Experience
The sound quality of course depends on your bandwidth (and the station).
I have a slowpoke 256kbps connection and I can vouch that the buffering and streaming is more than adequate.
Bandwidth is a variable, but what’s impressive is the smooth switching between stations.
you might polish it further by ticking on crossfading and volume normalization from theGeneraltab underOptions.
Internet radio comes with the rider that you will hit and miss some stations while browsing.
RadioSure lacks a help file but with the simple features, you really don’t need one.
Compare it with something like the onlineRadioTimewhich we have covered earlier orScreamer Radio.
