April 2008, PC Utilities, quotes and excerpts from the review:
"Audials One comprises three seperate utilities - Videoraptor, Radiotracker and Tunebite. These three tools provide different audio and video features, and form an impressive online media package.
Videoraptor can be used to scour the Web for videos or audio files relating to your favourite music artist. Results are star-rated, enabling you to filter out poor content, and the source of each clip is shown (eg YouTube). But Videoraptor doens´t just download music, it can also convert downloaded content into a variety of file formats.
Radiotracker scans online audio streams and records content, based on your genre choice, to your hard drive. The MusicFinder takes things a step further by asking which artists you enjoy. It then searches through over 18,000 radio stations and finds channels it deem suit your taste. The simple Podcast feature also works well by automatically downloading your favourite shows.
Finally, Tunebite converts files and captures audio streams. Crucially, this tool can remove DRM protection from music files, such as those purchased from the likes of the iTunes store. This then allows you to make more copies of files than the digital rights usually allow and transfer them freely to your portable media player.
Audials One contains enough tools to be worth buying... thanks to some cool additional features like ringtone creation, this is a good, multifaceted suite."
