Other Comments
It’s comfortable because stations can be shared on twitter, facebook, e-mail or foursquare. The only inconvenient is that, accessing the site www.soundtracker.fm by safari browser for mac, it’s difficult to figure out with the player.
Internet explorer on a windows machine is a bit better

Accessibility Comments
This app is almost fully accessible.
The “popular stations” section is not usable, as all buttons are unlabeled, but the developers are going to fix it
In the section used to add/invite friends, “suggested friends” and “find friends”, the buttons to add and invite are not properly labelled: addp1 and invitep1. The developer is fixing it
The buttons to go back to previous screen, are not “back buttons” but normal buttons.
For example: to go back from “my stations” to the main screen, the “soundtracker” button must be searched for, and double-tapped
The back buttons are always on the top left corner of the screen.
