Just as we reported that FlyTunes has added more than 100 new channels to its offering, they’ve announced a partnership with AccuRadio.com that will bring all 320+ channels of AccuRadio to iPhones and iPod Touch models.
AccuRadio, with nearly a half-million listeners per month, is among the top Internet radio broadcasters in the world. AccuRadio’s channels cover a sweeping range of musical interests, including rock, pop, jazz, country, classical music, and Broadway. AccuRadio founder and CEO Kurt Hanson is also the publisher of the aforementioned “RAIN: Radio And Internet Newsletter”, and, as such, is one of the most prominent voices in the webcaster community.
FlyTunes CEO Sam Abadir commented: “Today’s announcement that AccuRadio is bringing over 320 stations to millions of iPhone and iPod Touch owners proves that mobile Internet radio is now ready for prime time — and I expect terrestrial broadcasters to follow this trend shortly.”
