Its a fairly cool service - but the name always throws me off. Makes me think of "Sikh pod" - some ridiculous low budget borderline racist show or something like that... which is clearly ridiculous - but pops into my head whenever I read the name.

I agree with the above - SeeqPod is cool but the Flash interface is clunky and AJAX would make it so much sweeter.

I would recommend http://sadsteve.com for anyone who wants the same functionality of SeeqPod but with a cleaner design and free, and easy downloads. Just click "download" and bang, you got the song.
