Although the subheading mentions that AOL Radio includes access to XM radio, that is no longer true.

The pre-sets are nice but I can't add the internet stations I'd like to add (Virgin Radio from the UK for instance), just those from their list.

As such, there seems little point adding this to your computer if you already have iTunes (this is mac, why wouldn't you have iTunes....).

I don't think that I'll use this long term.

I just tested the snipping capability of the software on an item I wanted but is listed regularly. It didn't snipe. Additionally, the default time between checking as you get close to the end of an auction is far too long.

Price is right, functionality not quite what I'd like....

This used to be my favorite widget but it's no longer really free. Through no fault of the developer, the (previously free) source for the TV listings went under (labs.zap2it.com). So now you have to pay a subscription to a third party to get the same information we used to get for free. Particularly annoying to those of us with, for instance, TiVo, who are already paying for the information.

Still a great widget but not really "free" anymore.

Would have rated Version 3.0 as a 4 (uses a lot of RAM and crashed - but useful none-the-less) but, because of the (what I consider) excessive charge, I rate 3.5 as a 2. The charge is not a one-time cost either - it's a subscription charge.
