With a lovely menubar icon, a great way to filter through stations, and the ability to add your own, there’s no reason you shouldn’t give Radium a try. Just don’t miss out on your chance to win, okay? Thanks to the fine folks at CatPig Studios for providing me with a review copy! We’d like you to feel a little bit of the love too, so we’re giving away 16 copies of Radium to Internet Radio lovers all across the MacStories stratosphere. It’s just a really quick, fun application that’s great for listening to all my favorite music while I’m cranking out MacStories reviews or doing some college lab report. I’m very satisfied with Radium as an Internet Radio player, and it’s officially earned a permanent spot on my menubar. I assume so anyway, because when I changed to higher quality audio, the song changed to something else. In some instances, this change might switch to a different radio feed in that network (a radio station might have a low quality and high quality feed that are playing different songs at the same time). Talk about awesome! For those who have the bandwidth available, you can also have Radium play you higher quality audio. If you have an XM Radio account, Radium can use your credentials to stream XM Radio right to your desktop. Lastly, I should talk about some advanced features. If there’s a station you come across that you find inappropriate or downright annoying, you can uncheck the station to remove it from your search results. For the Radio Networks in view, you can view a description and even add your own custom stations if what you’re looking for isn’t available. Also available is an internal list of all the stations you have access to, which can be updated automatically via the Updates pane. In the preferences, you can establish a myriad of keyboard shortcuts for just about anything, as well as being able to open Radium at login (I suggest you do).
Radium’s features go deeper than just your list of Radio stations though.
