Rating:  - Super speed
that was amazing
They shipped my in 4days and didn't chagrge anything for shipping
Thank you.
Rating:  - Good Book, but dated
This is a good book, however all books on the internet are outdated even before they hit the presses.
If you know nothing about Internet Radio this book is a good start, however you'll have to turn to the search engines to find out what is happening now. A good book that ages fast. Think twice before spending your money. Surfing the web is free and up to date. Wyatt Kaldenberg
Rating: - Great book - with unlimited free updates!
It's a really good book - excellent if you've ever thought about setting up your own web radio station. (But let's face it - most of us won't!)
What's a really good idea is the accompanying web site which will provide the latest info on trends, tools etc. A simple idea which should avoid the usual problem with these types of book - that they get out of date almost immediately.
Hope the updates keep coming ....
