The only reason this app gets 3 starts is because 2.5 starts isnt an option. To be fair, I used to really like this app a lot because they claimed to be commercial free and they kept their word. They offered a great selection and wide variety of artists and titles. Then, economics and greed set in...
They, ever so slyly, began slipping a 5 second commercial in here and there. Then, it bumped up to 10 second commercials. Now, theyre up to full on 30 second commercials pretty regularly.
Of course, there IS a way around it... you can go the "paid subscription" route which is "commercial free" for now... making this app NO DIFFERENT than Pandora, Spotify, Sirius or countless others.
Overall, the app works well and runs without glitches. The variety is still pretty wide but I do hear songs repeated if I listen for an extended period. It is what it is, and you get what you dont pay for. As for me, Ill stick to downloading music to my device and playing it from there. Either way, Im paying, but at least my way, I only pay once instead of monthly.
