ITV Player - Plays The Programmes You Miss

Advantages: ITV Any Time, Convenient
Disadvantages: Buffering Takes Time

...ITV Player follows in the footsteps of the BBC I-Player ? an online service offering the opportunity to watch the shows you have missed for up to 28 days after they are first aired. For those without a DVD recorder of a VCR this service offers an excellent opportunity to catch up. This service was a new experience for me and having read several reviews as to the poor quality of the programmes screened I wasn?t expecting an awful lot. However I made my way to ITV.co.uk and followed the link for ITV Player. The website is extremely accessible and very user friendly. The ITV Player link takes you to a sub site specifically adapted to allow the user to find the programme/show they wish to watch and then to watch it. I was seeking Wuthering Heights, Part 2 having seen Part 1 last Sunday evening. The show wasn?t available online...

My Unbiased review of the Teac CRL600

Advantages: Compact, yet Powerful
Disadvantages: None

...After re-aranging our lounge a decision was made that the black clunky stacking hi-fi had to go, so a search on the internet and a visit to the Richer Sounds website led me initially to the Denon DM31. I visited my local Richer sounds shop in Norwich the following day with the intention of purchasing a Denon, but a very helpful assistant informed me if I was to run powerful speakers such as mine (Bose Acoustimass 5) I would be better off with the Teac CRL600 with a higher wattage. I hesitated as I had no info on this model, but decided to go with it when he assured me if I wasnt happy I could return it within 14days. I plugged it all in at home and WOW I was very impressed. Far superior than my stacking ugly system. This unit sits beneath my tv ontop of the DVD player and looks well at home. The audio quality from the CD and radio is...

Teac reference 300 - best mini system under £1000

Advantages: Great Sound, Great Looks, Great Price
Disadvantages: Remotes a bit cheap, no USB port,

...Having been in the market to downsize my old hi fi for something more compact, I've settled on the Teac reference 300 mkIII with DAB tuner. Its a 3 box system as opposed to the other smaller one box systems manufactured by Teac and others such as Denon, Arcam and Onkyo. As such, although being larger, it is more user friendly to use and has more power at 45 wpc RMS. At around £500 rrp it stands up favourably in price to the Arcam Solo Mini and comes in silver or black finish with machined aluminium fronts and a classy blue display on each unit. It actually appears slightly retro in appearance although the remotes are a bit cheap looking. The silver units can be found for as little as £349 without speakers so its quite a bargain. Sound quality for such a small unit is really clear and well defined with a warm bass typical of Teac...

Review of Teac REF 300 DAB MK III

The Player - The Supermen Lovers

Advantages: Starlight. No doubt about that!
Disadvantages: Well, there are some songs that none of us like...

...The year was 2001. Where I had no taste in modern music at all. (And I still don't to be honest). A 'French' house song reached number 2 in the UK Charts. The song was Starlight, and in all my life I had never heard a song as good as that could bring me in a happy mood. Considering that I think that Starlight is quite underrated, it didn't get enough fame - it only reached number 2. That made The Supermen Lovers a One Hit Wonder. But Starlight stayed in the top 10 European charts for an outstanding three weeks. But that still didn't give it enough attention. I think that people should reconsider that Starlight is a great pop song, it got me into more of The Supermen Lovers songs that I admire myself. Which is why The Player is the best album The Supermen Lovers has made, and the first as well. People who like Starlight might consider...

Much More Than A Music Player

Advantages: Fantastic crisp screen, easy to navigate
Disadvantages: no 3G connection, small screen size causes some problems

...I have wanted to buy myself a good MP3 player for a while but with so much choice on the market it was difficult to decide which one to buy. My family have owned several versions of the i-Pod nano over the years and we have always been happy with the performance. I was seduced by all of the additional features on the i-Pod touch, as well as being a music player you have video playback and many of the features of a PC in your pocket. I own the 3rd generation of i-Pod touch which was released in September 2009 and offers increased browsing speed and more features than previous models. The i-Pod touch itself is a sleek and stylish player which most people would be happy to carry around. It is only available in chrome but if you buy directly from an Apple store you can have your i-Pod personalised free. I would advise anybody who buys an i...

DVD player for girls with a passion for fashion

Advantages: remote, nice design, portable
Disadvantages: battery pack is a bit bulky

...I am sure anyone with a similar aged daughter to mine (9 on Sunday) will have had exactly the same situation as me last Christmas. My daughter came to me with an Argos book in one hand and one hell of a shopping list in the other! When we added it all up, it came to about £700 (and she's good at maths so I think she was pushing things a little there!). We whittled it down a bit (!) and it still left her spoilt rotten. Now, I had really good intentions to stick at that list... but it didn't happen! Most of you will have seen the many Argos adverts prior to Christmas with the half price offers. I caught the end of one and saw this Bratz portable DVD player in the pile of toys shown on the advert so went online for a look. I had been considering buying it since my friend bought it her daughter for a birthday present and told me...

an excellant music player

Advantages: large memory, lightweight, stores videos, easy to use,
Disadvantages: uncomfortable headphones

...This is honestly the best investment i have ever made. The 80g memory allows me to keep all my music stored in it so that my laptop runs a lot quicker. It also holds videos and i find it great for adding movies to then using my earphones and playing them on long bus journeys, etc. Its very easy to use and i find the sound and picture quality very good. i find the sound lock on it very useful also. You can also back up programs and photos from your pc in case you ever have any problems with it. Its compatible with most headphones also. It is very lightweight therefore great for taking on outdoor activities and to the gym. The only thing i would change is the headphones that come with it as i find them very uncomfortable and the sound is not great when you have the volume loud. This is a perfect music player for people who...

ill never forget these speakers.

Advantages: great
Disadvantages: none

...These are some speakers I actually got as a present from my brother not this Christmas, but the one before it, around a year ago now. At first inspection, I thought they looked really cool, however I was yet to use them, as I didn’t have a laptop to play music over. I did however have an mp3 player but because these plug into your USB port, I couldn’t actually use them until I got a laptop, so I tucked them away under my bad and just forgot about them. Anyway, the time soon came where I decided to buy a laptop, and soon enough I remembered these speakers out to see how good they really was. The first thing ill mention is how easy they was to actually set up, it must have took me less than a minute and I was playing music, the only wires you could get muddled up are the one going from the laptop audio jack, to the speak...
