touch, called SnowRemote, and updated its Snowtape radio software
Snowtape. SnowRemote enables the user to remote control Snowtape
wirelessly within his local home network.

Snowtape. It enables the user to quickly browse through hundreds of
radio stations, search using genres and countries, search by keywords
and remotely mark stations as favorite, says Martin Hering, founder
of Vemedio.
The integrated playback controller allows for changing play/pause and
start and stop recording the program, as well as changing the
playback volume. It also displays current album artwork if available.
The new version of Snowtape features an improved search algorithm for
album artwork, a better handling of deleted items and a search for
stations by country. There are now over 1000 high quality radio
stations available.
