James,
This is the first that I have seen of this player. Works pretty well
in Safari.... but the overall sound compression is absolutely awful.
There is no way I could listen to that for pleasure. Even the adverts
are "pumping"..... that has to be from your audio source.
Sorry about that.
Within iTunes it is a lot better, but still only about 20% of
listening to a non compressed mp3, as in audio compression. I have
listened to Virgin since the original radio trials in London.... when
it was up there with the great US FM stations.
I know that the quality of sound isn't a bug, but if one does not
head for the lowest common denominator, then it is at best a little
sad.... when you could easily stream something a whole lot better. :-)
Can the update of the VRP have a couple of "rounded" buttons in the
window.... doze doze doze...... :-)
The Nirvana video here sounds great in comparison, nice to see Virgin
supporting Youtube.

just under the "Listen live now" link if you're logged in).
All feedback is very welcome: please use the link you'll find
within the player, so issues all get logged. It goes live tomorrow! ;)
If you're not a VIP and really don't want to register, please GTalk
me (james.cridland) and I'll give you another way in.
