Awful app and awful ownersThis app has been slow and awful for years. Content sucks, it's full on boomer slop now.

WorthlessThe sound cuts of every minute, doesn’t load up fast enough. Keeps buffering, totally worthless. Use AI and write new code.

Horrible AirplayThe app is terrible when using airplay. No other app on my phone stalls like this one on airplay.
