Instant Internet TV/Radio
Where to start?
First of all, Amazon seems to have this USB dongle listed as a "toy". I'm sure that's just a data input error.
The stick works as advertised,in as much as it is a plug and play device, and it boots up and presents the input screen as it should.
The problem is that the data base of stations is very difficult to work with. Many stations are mislabeled (such as movie channels turn out to be news etc.)and so many of the stations listed are to links that have no streaming data at all.
Another data error is that, for instance, when searching by country and then state,no stations showed up for my state, although when searching for say, NEWS, several stations in my state are listed.

Worthless Product
These small Instant Internet TV/Radio products do not provide Internet TV programs as described, unless you like watching all news programs.

As others have noted, this is simply a USB flash drive with a bunch of links stored on it. Few things are correctly labeled; some are said to be stations for movies or TV shows, but I've yet to find a single station that actually offers streaming movie or TV shows. The only ones that seem to work at all are news stations, and others simply link to a station website where there's no streaming video to be...
