In the 2002-2003 timeframe, Dr.Octo Version 3.0 evolved from 2.0. Still using the massive jukeboxes, the main improvement was an X-Widows GUI, a Web Interface (allowing listeners to see what was playing and interact to a limited degree), and various internal improvements that allowed more fine-grained scheduling to be done, as well as improved DJ-Assist mode (not present in Version 2). This system was in production until the fall of 2005.

This system was in production until the fall of 2005. This version was hampered by the entire library being on CD. It wasn't quite possible to put even some of it on hard disk yet, as the necessary codecs just weren't there yet. The original vision remained incomplete despite the improvements.
