Apps Give Listeners Radio Everywhere | Localytics The convenience of having your favorite local radio station in your pocket is resonating with listeners, according to our latest research. Over the past 12 months, use of radio-based mobile apps grew 33%. By instantly turning any iPhone, iPad or Android device into a “radio”, users can listen virtually anytime and anywhere. The convenience of radio anywhere “Our recently completed Techsurvey8 says a lot about the voracious appetite for all things mobile – especially apps,” said Fred Jacobs, President of Jacobs Media/jacAPPS. Indeed, turning a smartphone or tablet into a radio is a simple as downloading an app and streaming audio over either WiFi or a mobile data network. The other 58% of radio app sessions were over mobile (cellular) data networks. “We’re always looking for new ways to engage our listeners, and apps provide us with a great one,” says Tim Murphy of Entercom, one of the five largest radio broadcasting companies in the United States.

Senzari Unveils First Internet Radio Integration To Facebook Places Senzari, an international web-based radio service offering personalized music recommendations from a catalog of over 10 million songs, debuts a never-before-seen music discovery feature as well as a "mobile first" redesign now open to the public. The location-aware feature initially combines check-in data and individuals' musical tastes, from Facebook Places and Senzari, to showcase the most popular artists of people that visit a particular venue have in common. Currently, the data is based on Facebook's "check-in" information, but it will soon be expanded to other similar services, such as FourSquare and Google Places.

Rethinking Internet Radio, Part Two: Using the Cricket Muve ZTE Score Mobile Phone as a Web Radio | The SWLing Post At the SWLfest this year, I attended a forum about web/Internet radio that had a significant influence on my thinking about the subject, and which I discuss in Part One of this post.

The Cricket Muve ZTE Score Fortunately, serendipity stepped in to assist my cause: Last week, I saw a post on the Herculodge about a no-contract, Android smart phone called the Cricket Muve ZTE Score.

The Cricket Muve ZTE I have an Android phone now (the Droid 3) and have the TuneIn app on it that I mention in the previous post.

Rethinking Internet Radio, Part One | The SWLing Post At the SWLfest this year, I attended a forum about web/Internet radio that resulted in my reconsideration (and, frankly, increased appreciation) of this now-conventional medium. If you’re already familiar with web radio, you may find this post a bit primary in nature; but if, like me, you hadn’t given the medium much consideration, I ask that you join us for a little rethink. I decided, just to be fair and broad-minded, I really ought to take an exploratory plunge into the diverse world of web radio. True, we’ve never discussed this on the SWLing Post before; as our name implies, we usually stick closer to our classic shortwave medium. But as we do like to cover international broadcasting in our post, we must acknowledge that internet radio is now a significant part of that far-reaching landscape.
