We told you AOL is preparing to relaunch its AOL Radio app in partnership with Slacker and voila – it’s now in the Apple AppStore while the Android version will be launched later this year. Available as a free download, the application comes with 50% less audio advertising and improved listening features for easier access to 200 radio stations programmed by AOL Radio music directors, non-music programming like ESPN Radio and 10 million-plus song catalog.
At the moment, only the free version of the app/service is available. Next month, AOL will unveil two subscription products for users who want an “even richer and more customizable listening experience.” Radio Plus will feature completely ad-free listening without audio or banner advertisements, as well as unlimited song skips, song lyrics, and offline listening for mobile. Premium Radio will have all the features of Radio Plus along with on-demand listening by song, album, artist or custom playlist. All in all, AOL wants its music service to be competitive with other premiere music product offerings. In the meantime, you can download the free app from the link below.
