Advantages: Great Music with Fantastic Shows and Competitions
Disadvantages: Commercial so has Adverts

...I started to listen to Kiss 100 a few years back when I began to get bored with the same stuff every morning on Capital. After hearing someone mention try Kiss 100 I thought and would, and to be honest don’t really listen to any other stations now. My radio is permanently tuned to Kiss, and if I am sitting at home then the TV will be on Kiss TV on sky. Addicted or what? No just enjoy listening to the great music that they play. Due to some of the horrible shifts that I have to work, ranging from a 6am start to a half 9 finish throughout the week and at weekends I am listening to it in my car. To be honest this is probably the time that I do listen the most. But because of these shifts it gives me the opportunity to listen to the various shows throughout the day. Throughout the course of the day they have many different DJ... Read review

Advantages: Laugh a minute, fun, be a kid again
Disadvantages: A bit cheesy at first

...My husband and I have recently subscribed to Sky movies which entitle us to watch some more channels. We are both film addicts and love to watch new and old films. We love films of any genre and even those with subtitles. We thought it would work out cheaper subscribing to sky movies rather than hiring video's every night. Flicking through the channels and trying to find a good film I came across Never Been Kissed. As we usually do we looked it up on Ciao and found out that it looked to be our type of film. Plus the fact I could turn round to my husband and say "Never Been Kissed" at which we both looked at each other and laughed. It's like the joke where you say you're still a virgin when you know that's not true. I'm going to try and not give too many spoilers away in my last film review I gave too many away and could have... Read review

Advantages: Stays put for ages as the advertising claims
Disadvantages: Can dry your lips out

...Did my title get your attention? Did you realise this review was about lipstick and not me giving away kisses? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rimmel very bravely named this lipstick "1000 Kisses" and I wonder how many people have actually bought this product and then proceeded to kiss people 1000 times to see if it actually stands up to this particular test? Maybe not many people then! I certainly didn't test mine that way. I simply bought it for 2 reasons - I like lipsticks that supposedly stay put on your lips rather than on drink glasses, cigarettes, etc and because I liked the particular shade that I chose - Scarlet (205). The only kiss test I did with this lippie was to kiss the back of my hand a dozen or so times (yes I do love myself!) and I was pleased to see that the lipstick didn't leave any signs of me...

Advantages: Original story, excellent illustrations
Disadvantages: May be difficult for young readers

...Looking through a list of David Melling's books on Amazon, it is striking that they all have five-star ratings. I'm surprised that I have never come across any of them before, but having read 'The Kiss that Missed' I will certainly be on the lookout for the others. Melling is both author and illustrator of this delightful picture book. He began his career as an illustrator and then progressed to writing his own stories that were inspired by his drawings. The story centres around a goodnight kiss that is blown by a busy king (on his way to have a bath) to his young son. The kiss unfortunately misses the little prince and bounces out of the open window. The king orders his loyal knight to go in search of the kiss, so the knight mounts his trusty horse and they gallop off to the wild wood. This is a pretty scary place when it is dark... Read review

Advantages: Detroit Rock City
Disadvantages: a very mixed bag of tracks

...Destroyer was Kiss' fourth studio recording. The New York City rock band, Paul Stanley (vocals, guitar), Gene Simmons (vocals, bass), Ace Frehley (guitar, vocals) and Peter Criss (drums, cocaine), had become one of the USA's biggest live draws by the mid 70s, but were still yet to crack the lucrative albums market. This release was to be their ticket to the big time, achieved with a big push from the record label Casablanca, and not a little bit of good fortune. Their previous album, the live set called, er, well, Alive, had been a million seller. (It remains one of the most famous of all live albums to this day). In time honoured fashion, the record company were keen for the band to get out another album whilst the buzz was still on. They brought in Alice Cooper's producer Bob Ezrin and recording began at New York... Read review

...I discovered this a couple of years ago. I was just shopping around for a conditioner and I love raspberry and then I saw the price and I thought I'm having that.

Advantages: Smart, hip and uber cool!
Disadvantages: none at all

...(Rules of Attraction) registering any impact with me. Question is can he re-ignite his glory days where he was earning over $1 million a script? Well as far as I am concerned the answer is yes! Kiss Kiss Bang Bang brings the Lethal Weapon style buddy movie slap bang into the new century. With a wry, sardonic narration by Downey that not only follows cinematic traditions but continually apologises for doing so! I dislike the term post modern but it really does fit KKBB so well. KKBB is a modern 'film noir' without the darkness, a 30's PI movie without the world weary PI (Private Investigator) and is the most enjoyable action film I have seen in ages. Though to call it an action film is a misnomer, it does have a lot of action but it is a lot more than just that. KKBB is the story of Harry (Downey), a useless burglar who, while... Read review

Advantages: Good music (you can hear some, way before release, i.e. when still white label)
Disadvantages: Sometimes can be a bit tacky

...I remember years and years ago when Kiss FM (100.00 London) was a pirate radio station. Its popularity grew and they went legit! At first, the music played really appealed to me. It was modern dance/club music (not everyones taste I know!) However they then seemed to go through quite a long phase where they played a lot of hardcore and trance music. As this is not my type, I stopped listening for quite a few years. A couple of years back, I started to listen again and found that once again they were playing music that I liked and that they were really coming upmarket! Its true that they play mostly UK garage/two-step and dance music and aim their shows at teenagers and twentysomethings. However they do manage this quite well, through the music, the fun loving DJs and guest sets from well known DJ's - DJ EZ for example. In my... Read review

Advantages: Plays all the content and file types you can throw at it
Disadvantages: Plenty of bugs, little firmware updates and the Online Extras are useless

...I have owned the Kiss DP-600 player since the day it came out. So far it has not failed to play a media type thrown at it. Unfortunatly Kiss have only released a few firmware updates. The player is still full of Bugs. For example - *a Green screen when the player turns on *Difficulty in Upgrading and Downgrading Firmware *HDMI issues still (my HDMI decided it would stop working) *Access speeds from USB port to an External usb HDD make high definition content on the hard disk pretty much unplayable. *Power off feature doesnt always switch to full standby more like a hibernate mote Dispite a couple of firmware updates to do not think Kiss have taken their time with this product. In my opinion this is now very over priced for its age. And looking around you can buy HD media player which is more up to date than the Kiss 600... Read review
