[email protected]

[email protected] is a widget built on the Yahoo! Widget Engine platform that ensures users with fast access to the [email protected] radio station, but also to the House channel, hosted by the same server. It is easy to set up.

The widget's frame is small and can be moved to any position on the screen using the mouse cursor. The [email protected] stream is automatically played upon initialization, and you can adjust the volume level.

Opening the context menu to bring up the Widget Preferences panel gives you the possibility of selecting the radio channel from a drop-down menu, between Trance and House, along with the stream type, between broadband 256k, high 128k AAC and low 40k AAC), depending on which quality you prefer.

Additional options let you change the text color and font name. Thanks to the default settings provided by the Yahoo! Widget Engine, you can also enable the window to stay on top or below the frames which belong to other apps, to ignore mouse commands and to prevent dragging. Last but not least, you can adjust the opacity level.

[email protected] is very light on the system CPU and memory, so it doesn't interrupt the user's activity on the workstation. It has a good response time and works smoothly, without causing the Yahoo! Widget Engine to hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. [email protected] provides fans of the Trance and House radio channels hosted by Etn.fm with a simple method to listen to their favorite mixes.
