itunes alternative

one of the long time alternative that i have been seeking for is another software that enable me to download podcast, browse through channels and other related stuffs that i usually gathers from the itunes.

Meanwhiles, it comes a whole new media channel for me. I learn about TEDtalks, Nature and cartoons from the 30's. The software designed in a way that only store in your hard drive for an assigned period of time before deletion. GREAT! save time and space for hard drive management. It is also great for viewing offline.

It does anything except sync withing the iPOD device. Can't wait until the next version for sync.

SoundCLOUD :the new internet sound


(soundclouds): my recent favorite new internet sound. It contained many experimental, techno and original recordings, ranging from minimal techno to classical beats. No radio's top 50's hits here. Great alternative to radio!

Also, the music plays continuous without clicking between songs. The continuous play has the same genre of music. More fun things are the feature to add comment at the right moment. Some tracks are downloadable.

(Picture: That's what I feel like with soundcloud. Tons of tracks coming from all creative directions, much more so than the airport traffic.)
