Earlier this year I wrote a piece on the Scion Radio 17 Beats Per Minute (BPM) Meter app for the iPhone and iPod touch – that has apparently gone on to become quite popular, and now there is a second Scion-branded App – the Scion AV Radio app.
With the Scion AV Radio application, users can listen to the automaker’s online radio station “Scion Radio 17” directly from their device. Among the featured radio stations in the app are “Vice Radio,” “The Rub Radio,” “Wax Poetics,” “Turntable Lab” and “IHEARTCOMIX.”
The Scion AV Radio app also allows users to listen to the latest remix projects and CD Sampler releases from Scion’s in-house record label “Scion Audio Visual,” as well as watch interviews with music artists with whom Scion has partnered. A multi-media platform capability also allows users to send links with content from the Scion AV Radio app to themselves and friends to play from either a computer or iPhone.
The Scion AV Radio App for iPhone and iPod Touch is available for free in Apple’s App Store – search for ‘Scion’ to find it. There’s also a video here, where you can see how the whole thing works.

Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
