I used SAM Broadcaster for over 10 years and had nothing but headaches with constant crashing/buffering & freezing issues.

When SAM Broadcaster Pro crashed it would take the database with it.
As there is no way to backup or restore the database in SAM Broadcaster you have to prat around reinstalling everything.

I've used RadioDJ since November 2010 and it has NEVER let ME down.
Another user got 4 years uptime from v1.8.2
Even through all the different beta versions Radio DJ software was pretty much reliable as you could get...
I can leave RadioDJ to automate without needing to constantly needing to restart, repair or reinstall the program.
The last time I reinstalled RadioDJ was to upgrade to the latest version. RadioDJ is stable, reliable and dependable.
Nothing ever changes when it comes to SAM BroadcasterYear after year & time after time, Spacial Audio release badly coded software that just isn't fit for use in a radio studio production environment
STOP Buying software from Spacial Audio they simply have not got a clue what they're doing when it comes to coding radio playout software
