"... you can click on whatever
recording it is you want and it'll start playing within a couple
of seconds and you can listen to the whole thing - it's tremendous
- a tremendously good idea..." - James Jolly, CD Review, BBC Radio 3, 16/9/06

"...it
has been like having an additional record collection suddenly appear
in the house. However, there is nothing to burn or store –
you just grab what takes the fancy and play it via a link from computer
to hi-fi system. Sound quality seems generally excellent and, providing
broadband is used, it is probably quicker to put something on than
finding a disc on the shelves...." - Patrick Waller, reviewer's
log, MusicWeb International
Superb Audio Quality and Accessibility
What you'll hear on PADA are our full-quality, full-length MP3 masters. Unlike other
online music services we do not reduce sound quality for
our streaming service, especially having striven so hard to make
our recordings sound great!
