Love the service, dislike the name – LiveOne Music Review

My precious review below stands and I love this service. The Fine Tuning feature for preprogrammed stations is a genius feature unique to the service and yet they fail to market it. Not sure why the legacy Slacker name needed to change as this app is still called Slacker on legacy streaming devices and “live” isn’t the basis of what this app primarily represents. I’m a surprise and remain concerned about LiveXLive’s ability to survive as a going concern but will remain loyal as long as they’re around. BTW, why would someone think LiveXLive is pronounced “Live by Live”? A truly terrible name, even from the perspective of spacing between the words and finding it via search. I can’t find this app in the App Store under Music in the first 200 apps and that seems bizarre unless AppStore listings are pay to play. I love Slacker. It’s awesome for those of us who don’t follow end artists and want help listening to the latest content through their curated channels. That being said, Slacker has done such a poor job in marketing itself and attempting to acquire a loyal base of paid subscribers to assure its long term survival. The idea to cross market with Dash Radio seems short sighted given it’s a gratis product, but the least you could do for subscribers is to Ins. offer higher bitrate streams because the audio quality is lacking. Other than this I can’t say enough good about Slacker and send everyone I know to the platform and encourage them to subscribe to at least the low-tier subscription as it’s an excellent value.
