    macOS (and older OSX releases) are UNIX (see http://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3627.htm for certifications). Linux is not UNIX (its not certified - not many are - se…

    Frontex ( http://frontex.europa.eu ), its more of a co-ordination agency, but it does I believe have its own staff on secondment to it.

    +1 for Pub Standards. Also, on the Apple/iOS side, a group of local (Irish and non-Irish) developers, called XCake meets monthly in the science gallery in Dublin. http://xcakelabs.…

    Oh, thats really annoying. I don't have a fantastic connection myself at home. I'll look to use link conditioner to see if I can make re-connect more aggressive and try and solve y…

    Not at the moment, but possible in future. Can you let me know of an example stream?

    Objective-C literals, that's all.

    It is a great idea and should be possible so long as Apple is willing to approve an sandboxed app that accepts incoming connections (listens) on a port against the local interface.…

    Indeed it is to get latest stations. I will update to SSL.

    Right now, we don't do that. Its just a simple MP3 file that lasts for as long as you are recording a station. The problem with parsing the song title is that firstly, not all stat…

    Not only not approve, it physically won't work. The sandbox enforced partially at a kernel level will prevent the necessary low-level functions from working.

    It does not at the moment. And not from the want of trying! Unfortunately the App Store sandbox does not yet allow you to detect the media keys being pressed. The old way of doing …

    It is a bit. Menubar radio players will all seem similar. I was a Radium user myself. It was the "record" function of this app that prompted me to make it. I wanted to record radio…

    It is and its on our list (actually its on a git branch). Just didn't make it across the line for v1. As a stop gap we have this in our FAQ: Radio currently doesn't directly suppor…

    And getting {radioformac dot com} was just plain luck. Cost us €5.99. Try getting any dot com domain with radio in the word is just nuts. So again, we saw that as a sign!

    Sure. Nothing sneaky or anything like that. We were of course tossing around app names. Anything but "iRadio" :-) Nothing was sticking and people were asking me how we were getting…

    Will defo do that. Radio connects to a plist file on startup so we can push new stations to it. Thanks for the links. Getting a decent list of stations was one of the most frustrat…
