The Slacker Portable Internet Radio is an MP3 player with free ad-supported or paid music service is a brilliant concept, but buggy hardware marred the experience. Watch this video to learn out more about the device and about senior editor Tim Moynihan's surprising taste in music.
Is he going to go skiing soon? Why the ski cap? Maybe he's going to go hold up a 7-11 store when he's done trying to explain the horrible slacker POS player.

Interesting gadget, however a better solution than this device is almost any smartphone (like an iphone or one of the new android phones). They can stream internet radio over 3g network. If you combine the phone with a bluetooth enabled car stereo, you'll get Internet radio in the car also... CRYSTAL clear. No wires, no monthly fees... I'm using a Motorola Cliq with my JVC stereo. Works great!

actually Liist mine for some reason captured the raw file so its names umg0000809900hhjhj.mp3 or something butthe tage are sometimes there in the files and i just rename them after saving, i was hoping to automate this so that the program renames the files according to what is on at the time but this beats fishing around the firefox cache. this doesnt work with RTMP streamed stuff does it
coondogtheman1234 3 years ago
No, unfortunately you can't. Just make sure you add .mp3 to the end of the file name and name it in this fashion:
Artist - Song.mp3

thanks Liist i downloaded that to my firefox not i get all kinds of music, any way to automate this so it tags and renames the files automatically

If you use Firefox, get the Downloadhelper add-on and you can steal songs from Slacker Radio on your computer.
