| Tuner2 takes Retro Hit Radio to the iPhone |
|
Radio has come a long way since the early AM transmissions over 100 years ago. In the 80's an awesome new technology called the mobile phone came into existence ("the brick"). In the 90's, radio stations began streaming on the internet, and wonderfully enough - the two are talking to each other - so you can now listen to radio on a mobile phone!
It's only natural, really. Yes, it's taken a while, you can now listen to Retro Hit Radio using ANY modern cellphone. These include the almighty BlackBerry, most Nokia's, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Motorola, and even an iPhone! We've just finished testing and this has impressed our socks off. You can now listen to Retro Hit Radio IN YOUR CAR, anywhere in the country (or the world for that matter) using an iPhone! Thanks to the advancements in streaming and mobile technologies, the crew at Tuner2 has taken our aacPlus streamon-board their new iPhone app! This means you can enjoy our crystal clear stream in the car (via bluetooth, aux input, or ipod transmitter) while driving in Auckland Traffic, down the desert road, or down the west coast of the South Island to Queenstown ...WITHOUT... it costing the earth or using up most or all of your monthly mobile bandwidth. Not only this, but the features list is extensive! The iPhone app also supports instant song purchase, song tagging, album art and e-mail/Twitter stream now playing information. This is reality. Go check it out.
