Have seen press ads for this gizmo, a stick which plugs into a computer/laptop and enables yo to " tune in to sport,music,news,drama and comedy from all over the world". Compatible with Windows 7,Vista and XP (not with Macs). Costs £19-99.
Has anyone tried this gadget and if so any comments would be most welcome. Basically, does it work?!

Whatever it is what you'll hear/see is streamed audio/video which is easily achievable without spending a penny - never mind £19.99

^the above links to one example of the radio I have, and when I say one-example I mean there are many companies selling identical radios, with just their own companies name on the side being the difference.
You'll find a few on eBay and Amazon, all at varying prices. I'm on my 2nd after discovering the 1st doesn't like falling into the bath. If you see one for ~£40-£50 then it might just be worth a plunge. If they're all in the high £80s then wait a short mo and cheaper ones will turn up
I use mine for LBC (live in Leciester, so ain't covered by their London based anteni).
