I really like this jukebox. The only thing I don't like is some of the stations that are 'available' are not allowed out of the originating country. It would be nice if these could be filtered out. I have found a favorite and haven't gone searching for any others! Great little tool! And it's so portable!!

Good, but could be better

The Aluratek Internet Radio Jukebox is great for finding & surfing radio stations around the world and playing them through a single interface. It performs this task very well. I had it up and running on my home PC in no time, just as advertised. Reasons I didn't give it 5 stars:
- The interface itself is clunky, cryptic and a bit slow. It's easy enough to use, just kind of awkward.
- It does not necessarily work on "locked down" office workstations. Although it doesn't need to install software to run, it does need to put a special driver in your Windows directory. Not a deal-breaker by any means, but something to be aware of.
All in all, the Internet Radio Jukebox is great for exploring Internet radio stations. If you'd like that process made simpler and more convenient, then you'll probably be happy with it. Otherwise, it's no different from just bookmarking your favorite stations with your Web browser.
