This was the first app I paid for almost three years ago when I got my iPhone 3G. It was great. Unfortunately, about a year ago it quit working. Then I got my iPad and it worked great on that. When I upgraded my iPad to iOS 4.2 it worked fine in the background. But on my Verizon iPhone 4 it will not work in the background. Very irritating.
Anyway, I am not sure what people are complaining about it not getting very many stations. You can type in any station you like by going to Search and then clicking Open (maybe not the most intuitive place to find that). Many of the preprogrammed stations do not actually seem to play which can be a bit annoying if you are just surfing for something new.
Overall, it seems to me that the basic functionality is there, however the developers dont seem to be keeping up with the changes to iOS, new hardware or the links necessary to access the streams.
