StarLight is a Sirius XM compatible radio player. Its features include Secure Login, Super fast, Dynamic Channel Listings that Auto Update. Hidden Parental Controls keeps kids away from Adult content (see Read me). Recent additions include Stars (favorites), AutoPlay, and AutoReconnect. Advanced channel search and customizable table sorts. SiriusXM limits you to 10 favorites, but StarLight's Stars are limitless. You can even search within your favorites. Sort and Search by Stars, Channel #, Genre, Category, and Description. And that's not all StarLight natively supports Rogue Amoeba's AirFoil 4; you can enjoy StarLight through any AirPlay compatible device or computer with AirFoil 4 (requires additional software not included)

Love this app. Love that it supports full-screen in Lion. I have not had issues with audio drop outs or crashes. Plays nicely with processor and memory usage. Features I would like to see added that would make it five stars:
-ability to use the play/pause button on the keyboard as iTunes, Spotify, etc do
-use the standard spacebar hot key to play/pause while in the app instead of using it to star/unstar channels
-ability to disable the menubar icon
If the developer were to implement these features and throw this app in the Mac App Store, I'm sure s/he could get < = $4.99 a pop for it. Of course, I'd love to see it stay free, but if I'm going to request features, obviously I'm willing to pay for the development effort!
