Another One Bites The Dust- uSirius StarPlayr
By 
Sadly another one of the apps on my iPhone has just become a collector’s item.
The uSirius StartPlayr iPhone app from NiceMac now joins Podcaster (the full-featured one, not the crippled version currently in the App Store) and NetShare as rare items on just a few select iPhones now that they, themselves, have gone to the App Graveyard.
Fact is, while I would likely not have used uSirius since I am quite happy with Pandora and Slacker Radio, I am sorry to see it go. NiceMac had done a superb job with the app which had a simple, inviting, yet easy to use, interface and just plained worked well in turning your iPhone into a Sirius radio.
The blog post over on the uSirius StarPlayr site is a clear, definitive statement that the project is already dead and buried six feet under.
The iPhone app never made it out of the gate and NiceMac will be issuing refunds to people who bought the Windows Mobile application.
Cue the frowny face and the requisite Queen song…
