“Pros:
1. Great variety of music posted by people who clearly care a lot about and listen to a lot of music.
2. Of the 3 podcasts KCRW is the best about posting information about the musicians they post.
3. Pretty good about getting back to you and fixing the problem when they have a problem with their feed, as occasionally happens.
Cons:
1. They take yesterday's song off after 24 hours, so if you go on vacation or simply don't open up iTunes and push the refresh button in your podcast folder, you're out of luck. This strikes me as parsimonious as both KEXP and MPR have found a way to keep their posts up for a while.
2. While most of the posts are current and are a good sample of what the california musicophiles are listening to, there are occasional eccentric choices where we're suddenly listening to a Ray Charles song from 1972 or something, which is not really why I personally subscribe to a podcast like this.
Having said that, I would absolutely recommend this as a necessary addition to your iTunes experience. You should definitely subscribe to this podcast and start building some cool playlists to impress your friends with how current you are.”Read full review »
