I’ve never quite seen the point of Internet Radio — on the desktop. But with the advent of “Tuner Internet Radio”, and other radio apps on the iPhone, the concept makes sense. Now you can plug your iPhone into your home stereo or your car and you have 4000+ radio stations at your fingertips. Choose by genre and popularity, or search for known stations like KROQ. Bookmark the ones you like for quick access…
“Tuner Internet Radio” ($5.99) by NullSoft, certainly does the job, as doe StreamItAll Radio ($3.99). But with All Radio at $0.99 and AOL Radio for Free it seems that the price point is simply too high – unless you find some station on Tuner that you can’t locate elsewhere. (Note however that AOL Radio claims only 200 stations, with at least 4,000 for some of the other apps)
