Tuesday "Just for Fun": Stream_ON
I love my Sirius radio, but I've always hated Sirius' deplorable web client for streaming it through the Internet. A few months ago they took the otherwise bad client and made it worse by requiring the listener to click the mouse in the interface every 90 minutes.
Now, the wife and I both work quite a bit from home. We run Sirius radio throughout the house from our music server in the living room (we're both big audiophiles), but having to go back to that music server every 90 minutes quickly became a pain in the neck. So, we stopped listening to Sirius. Bad job, Sirius. Consider yourself publicly scolded!
Then, I found Stream_ON. This fantastic little freeware client streams Sirius radio just like their horrible web tool, but without the 90 minute clicky-clicky. Its also easier to use. As I understand, Sirius has attempted to re-write their code a number of times to prevent this little tool from functioning, but its author keeps getting one step ahead of them. Keep up the great work!
To use this little tool, you'll need a Sirius subscription. But if you have one, get your copy of Stream_ON here: http://www.pride.hofstra.edu/~ehjelm1/
