Quits working if you update the software, even though the update message says all registration codes will be valid on update. So, they want you to kill you GAOTD code with the update!

Christmas is nearing again gotta prepare some great Christmas Gifts":;

I just tried to use this software and it says that it is an unregistered version. I had been unable to record a single song with it after trying for 2 hours. Then it gives me a message, saying that saved files are limited to 1 MB. This is not really a giveaway software. I always activate the GAOTD download before using. Maybe I waited too long to use it.

One of the best programs I have ever downloaded. Works as published. Downloads, names, and stores the music in the right folders.

I did download the get radio version from this site but it still says that it is unregistered and it keeps prompting me to buy it.

It also keeps prompting me to put in a license number which I do not have.

I am not sure what happened but it is limiting how much I can record.


I will have to delete it after the trial period because it is going to ask me to pay for it.

Please advise me

Y'all!!!! This is not software to let you listen to Internet radio. It's software to record AND TAG and easily organize songs you record EXACTLY what you want from MULTIPLE Internet radio stations AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!! You record more than one station at a time. It tags the songs for you. You can set it up to record exactly what you want. And best of all YOU DONT HAVE TO BABY SIT IT!!!

And once again I MISS the frikkin opportunity to install this giveaway! Dangit!!! Please give this amazing giveaway again GOTD.

256 Megabyte RAM
Windows Media Player 9 or higher.....this I dont have or want so I will have to pass on this

downloaded this,installed it, and it still shows as being ultimate 1.3.8
what's the difference between this and the ultimate one?

This RadioGet is just awesome! I love it! Thanks so much!

Love the program. This is awesome. NO problems at all It is everything you say it is. Bravo on a well developed and purposeful program! Yay! Kudos!

I can't even leave a comment, BAD GATEWAY anyway if this one goes through I have NO BUY button, no MENU Botton and NO WHERE to find where to get the activation code I've tried over and over. What do I do now?

Could someone kindly clarify.SoundTaxi Media Suite is also there in the start menu of RadioGet Full gotd version . Is it:-

1) Limited Trialware
2) Unlimited Trialware
3) Freeware
4) Payware

Can one use the same activation code as RadioGet?

Lately everything I download from you I get corrupted file when I go to activate it. This has been happening for about 2 months. Would have loved to have this. Been looking for something like this for quite some time.

"To register your copy start the program, go to Menu --> Buy and press Continue, then Finish. The fields are pre-filled with license data."

There is NO 'Menu' option! I would love to evaluate this program but without being able to register, I guess it's just going to be a loss.

Can someone give specific instructions as to how to register so that those of us who are completely lost might evaluate?

#8 and #55-- This is exactly the same program given away before. I installed it on a Windows 7 computer today, RadioGet Ultimate 1.3.8

The last version was "Ultimate", this is "Full" (12 mb) yet their website only has one and that's version 1.3.8 (6 mb). If someone knows the differences, it would be appreciated it they would post it.

Can someone tell me if Radio Sure has the record-by-artist function?

Thanks in advance.

never found the buy button. found radio sure...have tunes online.

Downloaded and ran setup.exe per readme.txt. Unselected Soundtaxi media suite in install. I have RadioGet Ultimate 1.3.8, but there is no "Menu --> Buy and press Continue," I think that must be part of the SoundTaxi media suite, and a "clever" marketing ploy. Could anyone find a "menu==>buy" in RadioGet? The manual say to buy go to the web site.

This is not free. Time is money. Bad directions represent a cost.

A nice free alternative that I've used for several years is Screamer Radio at

http://www.screamer-radio.com/

Easy download.Easy install. I love music(it gets in my ear). The price is the best in the neighbourhood (Canadian spelling). I'm not too lazy to actually click on a few stations to get the music I want. If you want it done automatically - hihe a butler. Thanks GOTD for a well engineered FREE product.

This RadioGet recorder is great.
Works great on Vista 64bit using the simple Realtek AC'97 Audio driver.
on board 2 way sound. Nothing special.

This was on here a long long time ago and it would not work at all.
They upgraded it like they said they would.
They have done a great job.

Downloaded and installed fine.
Started program and noticed it said trial version unregistered.
Shut program down and restarted it and a registration window popped up and all I had to do was click and now it is registered and shows as Radio Get Ultimate 1.3.8
So apparently the full and ultimate versions are the same thing.

People should have an OPTION to have their songs placed in folders named after the Radio Station it came from, "OR" the name of the Artist.

I understand songs are placed in folders named after the artist for iTunes, but people who want to discover new music and would like to know what radio station it came from, can't tell unless the songs are placed in folders named after the radio station.

It also lets me rate the quality of the songs for each radio station and then lets me decide whether I want to listen to anymore of their music. I can't tell that now the way it stands if I'm recording a few stations at a time unless I listen to the songs live.

Also, all of the radio stations are not presented after hitting the search button. If I "Junk" some radio stations, and then hit the "search" button again, new radio stations appear. All radio stations should be presented in a scrollable listbox. I found some good stations after junking some other ones, and I didn't see anything in the help section that mentions this fact.

And maybe a filter that prevents bit rates of less than 96kbs or 128kbs from being displayed after hitting "Search".

Otherwise, it's a nice program. Thank You to RadioGet and GOTD!!

Bravo Giovanni ! (#45) You are right !

There are too many free online radio websites. On some of them, you can easily find station URLs and use Winamp (or any other player) to listen to them.
26$ is a bit too much for a list of radio servers.
No download for me today.

I have Radiosure as well, but I prefer today's offering. Sure, it doesn't have as many stations, but really, how many do you need? I appreciate that Radioget narrows the scope of choices, whereas Radiosure is cluttered with too many, with more than a few that are poor quality or no longer active. That, and it seems more stable, has better sound quality, and nice features without as many dropped connections and ......interruptions......

Do I think it's worth the $25 asking price? Not really, but it's a better product than many of the free offerings I've tried.

Not anything special that I could see. Doesn't do anything RadioSure doesn't already to and since I have that one, this one seems redundant. After reading all the comments thus far I think I'll pass on this one. I mean really, NO audio controls for an AUDIO program? Errmmmm duh!

Happy day, Sassy

I had already installed this from the last giveaway. I installed this one, in case it's an update. (It doesn't say what version or anything.) It seems to work fine, but I do wish there were controls, too. I've never seen any audio players that didn't have the basic stop, play, and volume controls somewhere in the GUI before.

I have loved this software since last offered here. Doesn't sound like there is a big difference between this & last version. You can record multiple stations at once. Watch out, you can fill a smaller HD in no time w/MP3's! Some stations don't work, but I am not sure that this is programs fault. Try again later & may work. Occasionally I get bumpted off a station for no apparent reason. May be that I have 2 VOIP's, large network, etc on same cable connection.

What EXACTLY is the difference between today's giveaway and the one I downloaded and installed here on October 1st, 2009?

I donwloaded this the last time it was available. It is very easy to use, and very useful for me. Thank you for this.

I downloaded this guy when it was offered several months back, and will presumably upgrade to the newer version offered today.

What I liked: I have no particular desire to record stuff, but this program makes connecting to stations very easy when compared to most stations' online web interface. On those one has to go to the station's site, find the "listen online" (or whatever) link, and then perhaps select between a number of interfaces - Media Player and several other choices. Then the show typically buffers for a few seconds before playing, and with some stations first plays a 15 second commercial or promotional blurb. With RadioGet, the program instantly starts playing. What a pleasure.

What I don't like: not all my primarily-classical stations are available. For example, KUSC is not known to the program. And they go out of their way to make the program difficult to exit. Clicking the "red X" simply minimizes the program to the tray. Right clicking that, and selecting Exit, brings up an "are you sure" dialog. What a Crock!

OMG....... yet another update to a previously offered program. This is 3 days in a row repeats.

I have looked at this program before and just previewed it again. The interface is very hard on the eyes (don't know if it has other skins). The record mode seems to start automatically. After buying Wondershare and trying another radio player I am more and more convinced RadioSure (free) is the best program out there for the radio enthusiast.

eh, you're better off with Screamer...a 644 kb program that does everything that this bloatware program does, and its free...

http://www.screamer-radio.com/

I uninstalled the Ultimate edition of RadioGet and installed this Full version, but I still show that I have the Ultimate edition. The software does as advertised. I do not see any volume control button on the program, which would be very helpful.

Works just fine on XP SP3. READ THE READ ME FILE. I even added a station with no problem. Thumbs up on this one.

I got this the last time it was offered. If you like your low bandwidth mp3s with several seconds of the start of the song missing and some stray several seconds of a random "next" song attached to the end, then get it, otherwise skip it. If they can't get the break between songs right then I don't know why they try to sell this. As far as I'm concerned it would be better if it recorded everything into one large file (or at least had an option to do this) and then I could go in later and properly trim out individual songs myself. Without that or smarter locating of the start and end of songs, I find it useless. Also, I've never had it run a full 24 hours without locking up, and when it locks it stays locked, does not retry, must be restarted. Might be OK for just listening to Internet radio, but even then it insists on saving improperly trimmed files to disk.

I'd like this better if it were RarmaRadio which is light years ahead of every thing else that I've tried; including the last version of RadioGet that GAOTD offered.

That being said, this IS free (for the moment) and not bad as a result. Others not having Rarma might also consider RadioSure (freeware). Of course, there's always Shoutcast on WinAmp but its interface isn't the greatest.

And, if you have doubts about the usefulness of this software class, you probably haven't tried it. 'Nuff said.

Hi all!!

After reading your comments about today's giveaway I was wondering what's the point to complain about its expensive price if it's FREE for GAOTD visitors till tomorrow morning 9 o'clock Italian time???

Very silly, isn't it??


Sorry guys but can't get the point about that...LOL!!


As far as I'm concerned the key yardistick in assessing a software such as the GAOTD offered today should not be it's official price (who cares if it's FREE for us today?? LOL!!) but its overall performance in comparison with other similar free applications.

Now many people here have claimed that RADIO SURE and/or NEXUS RADIO are ALTERNATIVE APPLICATIONS far better than today's giveaway not only because they are both FREE but also because they have both more features (which ones??) and stations listed in the package than RADIOGET.

I checked out the features of RADIOSURE and to my great surprise I discovered that the number of web radio stations in the package is there less than half of those listed on RADIOGET (12000 vs 25000).

So why are you claiming (see comments #5,9,17) that RADIOSURE features in its package much more web radio stations than RADIOGET??

Is 12000 bigger than 25000?? LOL!!


And what about the cool RADIOGET option allowing its users to automatically record only those artists that they like to listen to??


Do the freeware alternatives mentioned above have this feature??


Waiting for your feedback!!


Cheers from Italy!!

Giovanni

What a great tool...very nice presentation...very easy to use.
Recording five radio stations simultaneously whilst automatically filing the Mp3 tracks to My Music.
The tracks you don't like you have to delete yourself.
Thanks GAOTD

No use my downloading this product I live in the middle of no where on a dead end road and radio's on computers do not work in my area. Thanks any way.

Lots of issues with this the last time it was offered. Does anyone know how this differs from the previous version.Thank you. By the way, it is so refreshing to come here since the #1 commenter has left. Now I don't have to start out angry the second I come in here seeing such a load of garbage disguised as a review.

i've tinkered with this program and would never buy it. i installed, tried to update without finding what others are talking about, and uninstalled. installed again. listened to one station, then tried another without success. people are actually paying for this? they should pay us for our wasted time on this one. i appreciate a freebie, but have played around for three hours and still have not one song recorded in full, nor have listened to a station that i find plays what i want to hear. i'm going with the free free stuff this time.

streamingradioguide.com is a website of radio stations that stream content. Its organized by genre (news, sports, talk, music, etc). Many syndicated shows air at different times across the USA. This site makes it easy to listen to your favorite show at a different time of day.

Audiograbber is freeware for playing/ripping CDs but has a a nice feature called "Line-in sampling" that will record (WAV or MP3) any audio sent to the PC speaker. You can set record times like a VCR to auto-capture audio while you are away from the PC (program time of day and duration).

For those complaining about lag and slow loading, I was running RadioGet on a cheap E-Machine with 1GB of RAM.

I didn't upgrade my RAM to 4GB's for this program,but it now starts immediately.

Remember RAM is cheap and opening programs is now lightning fast.

I give this 5 statrs although there are stations that fail to connect, luckily the stations that I listen to come in perfectly.

Downloaded and installed, and activated per read me txt. No automatic update. Went to computer, program files, radioget and used update.exe in folder. Components were updated, whatever that means. Rebooted computer and am listening to "Groove Salad". Version of software is 1.3.8. Where is the 1.3.9. update? Oh and thanks GAOD

Perty good program! Be sure to read the .txt file because the registration is a lil different than the usual. BTW, internet radio is not silly!

i keep getting the pop up box "UNABLE TO CONTACT, TRY LATER" box still comes up no matter how later....what is this???????....it just started happening...............and won't stop.......
