Customer Reviews
WIRED Science - good stories, lousy sound recently
Please keep up the good work. Consistently interesting. Lately, though, the recording is much too faint to hear, with advertising at regular volume levels! Help -I can only listen in very quiet environment.
Best of WIRED on the go
It's great to be able to digest articles on the go thanks to this service. The half-dozen vocies that read me the latest WIRED articles have become SO familiar to me, I often hear their voices when I'm reading articles on my tablet!
Thanks for everything you read, you guys.
Too negative and politically left
Can’t listen anymore
