User Reviews

It wouldn’t import my OPML export file so I couldn’t transfer from my other player. So I manually downloaded a podcast that I know has a lot of ads. It failed at identifying and skipping them. The bar graph of ads showed about 1/3 of the podcast was one big ad — it wasn’t. And even still, it didn’t skip over the “identified” ads. Let me know when a working version exists. Nice idea, but $5/mo for nothing — not happening.
