“I have long been a subscriber to KCRW’s Top Tune. For many years, the tune would show up daily in my iTunes. Since the move to Apple Podcast, the Top Tune episodes appear erratically in Podcasts on my MacBook. Sometimes once a week. Sometimes once a month. In trying to fix it, I have wound up...”Read full review »

“For several years now I have been trying to listen to KCRW’s Today’s Top Tune. Not once have I been able to a complete week’s worth of songs. The app has been unsubscribed from and then re-subscribed to multiple times and the results have always been the same. It’s a shame as the station always...”Read full review »

“Feed breaks often. But what is really annoying is that there is no list of past songs played, and downloaded songs disappear, so if you like something and don’t take a screenshot, there isn’t any way to find it. It’s frustrating.”

“One suggestion: have a week's worth of the most recent songs. That way people won't be dissuaded to subscribe because you only have one (older) song on the list during the weekend.”Read full review »

“I have been a KRCW Top Tune subscriber for many years. I don't always keep the songs they post, but when I enjoy their selections.
Recently they have added a advertisment to the beginning of each song, which I quickly delete.
If they keep this annoying header to every song, I think I will...”Read full review »

“This used to be my favorite place to find new music, but over the past year it's gotten mellower and lamer. Now it feels like a great place to find an indie band your mom would like or a folksy/alt country tune to put in a Diet Dr. Pepper commercial. What happened?”Read full review »

“Pros:
1. Great variety of music posted by people who clearly care a lot about and listen to a lot of music.

It's a great pity, however, that they've chosen to reduce the bit rate of the podcast from 128 to 64 kbps. I realize this probably saves bandwidth, but it makes the tracks sound awful. ...”Read full review »
