We've been lucky, I guess.
The Absolute Sound did a four part series in which the writers used JRiver MC to test. They came up with a few very controversial findings, but we've seen a lot of activity as a result. The last issue (March) had a summary. MC was named "Best of the media organizers" and "If you could buy just one...." Sort of like winning a couple of Grammy's for us.
Computer Audiophile did a very detailed article on MC17. They had done one on MC14 a few years ago, and it set off a round of news and forum activity about MC. As a result, I think, we picked up a lot of support from audiophile manufacturers. It affected our sales very visibly. This one should also have an effect. Chris Connaker, the owner and founder of computeraudiophile.com is a very knowledgeable, hard working guy who puts out a lot of good material. And he's a fellow Minnesotan! Here's the latest article:

AVForums included MC in a comparison of HTPC Software:
