I read it as meaning that if you download it before the 21st, you're golden. I did read through their FAQ and one of the questions deals with cost and they state it is free. I really couldn't see how they could charge for it anyway, as it just seems to be a really slick search engine that can stream.

Don't get me wrong, it is SUPER COOL! Really neat to think of a song, and as long as it's "playable" somewhere in cyberspace, you can play it instantly. I actually went and registered on their site and created my own little "podlist" which is pretty cool too.

All in all, very slick app.

Music playback is a bit choppy sounding. Also, while it works on WQVGA (Omnia) the player sizes for QVGA, leaving the desktop showing through in the bottom portion of the screen.

This is a rant, and I apologize in advance.

What are you guys smoking? lol. This app is useless. At least on my TP. It crashes nearly constantly, the times it doesn't crash it uses between 10 and 20 MB of RAM while not even playing anything. And when it does run, it keeps asking me to purchase songs instead of just playing them.

I noticed some of their "playlists" work alright. So here's a test for anyone that's bored. Search for "let it rock" as in the song by Kevin Rudolf. I've tried every playlist and every song on the first page, all either immediately crash SeeqPod, or cause an unrecoverable system hang.

Am I doing something wrong?

That's pretty funny that it locks up with that song. I tried about 20 other songs and had no problems. Tried this "Let It Rock" song and it skips from one to the other on the playlist and then locks my phone too.

I have found that it crashes, is slow and ugly. It is useless for me as well

I reach a certain point in each song where it won't buffer anymore. does anyone have this same problem?

Same here, but it works fine if i use activesync and use the computer's connection instead of EVDO on the Diamond (which then makes it completely useless)

I also believe it crashes all too often.
