Stream and record 12,000 stations with Radio Sure
by Lee Mathews Apr 4th 2009
Services like Last.fm might have a little advantage over regular streaming internet radio when it comes to cool factor, but it never hurts to have one more way to listen to and discover new music.
Radio Sure is a free application for Windows that allows you to turn in to (and record) more than 12,000 streams. It's very similar to Screamer, though I had more success getting stations to play on Radio Sure. Each station is tagged with its country of origin, primary language, and genre for convenient sorting. I'd like to see the genres handled a bit differently - for example, Punk instead of Rock - Punk and to be able to filter the listings. The interface is a little much for me, but it's not quite Fugly Friday material.
Those minor shortcomings aside, Radio Sure keeps things simple and just plain works. You can record any stream to MP3 in bitrates up to 256k and maintain a list of your favorites for fast tuning. Tracks can be auto-split, and the program will even skip recording tracks you've previously saved.
It's available both with an installer and as a portable version, and runs on Windows PCs.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
