The business of radio has been in some turmoil even before the economic downturn of 2008-2009. There’s a lot of consolidation, competition, and less advertising to go around. Add in satellite radio and internet radio to the mix with earthbound stations and the pie seems to be getting cut up into more pieces. The Radio industry will have to look to new technologies and innovation to get healthy again. p://thetoylounge.com” target=”_blank”>iPhone applications are one of these new innovations to watch for.
Radio is moving in a new direction with streaming audio on iPhone apps. The mother of all radio iPhone apps would be Clear Channel’s “I Heart Radio” application, which feeds off of Clear Channel’s “I Heart Radio online streaming website of 750+ radio stations. Last count showed 150+ stations streaming via I Heart Radio on the iPhone. But streaming individual stations on a giant aggregator app like this can sometimes be slow with lengthy buffering times.
Another option is for a radio station, either land based or online or satellite to have its own dedicated iphone app. Why be one of hundreds or thousands of radio stations on someone else’s app when you can have your own custom Streaming Radio iPhone app with its own icon on your listener’s iPhone screen? Your radio station gets one step closer to your audience, and your listeners have direct icon access to your streaming broadcast! Add advertising to your Radio Station iPhone app for increased revenue and social networking features to build your listener community.
A recent count in the iTunes App Store showed over 40 radio stations of all kinds with their own iPhone apps for streaming their broadcasts. From large organizations like Public Radio to smaller niche online stations like Classical Philippines Radio, streaming broadcasts via iPhone apps.
The cost to develop a streaming radio app is very reasonable if the station already has an MP3 or other compatible stream. A basic streaming radio app can cost as low as $1200.00 with optional upgraded features possible, or the app can be upgraded at a later date. The initial development cost can be offset by adding advertising, sponsorships, selling playlist music through iTunes, and more.
Will iPhone applications turn the radio industry around? Not by themselves, but this new technology should be seriously considered by any radio station that’s seeking to position themselves for the new era of broadcasting.

Try WinAmp. You can listen to quite a lot oif radio stations.
Your internet security may be interfering but I don't think so. Maybe you need to install Java virtual machine first as the online ardio needs it.
If you're using Windows Media Player for the online web radio, you may need to click on the embedded player first before it works.

Yes, it is possible, but it will cost you. You will need:
1. A laptop computer with car power adapter.
2. Cellular wireless connection card with subscription OR cellular phone that can be used as a modem through USB port with data plan. Yes, it is a bit expensive if you are only using it for radio, but think about other uses and about the convenience of having Internet anywhere you get your cellular signal.
3. A way to bring audio signal from your laptop to your car stereo (such as MP3 jack in a car stereo, tape adapter, or FM transmitter).
Once you have these things just boot your laptop, connect to the Internet using your cellular phone or card, browse to your favorite radio station and plug in the cable from audio out of your laptop to your car stereo.
Good luck,
Slava

Oh god! figure out your own problems! stop boring the rest of the world with your pointless chatter. we all have grown up things to do with our lives like change light bulbs and pay bills , not fix your little computer problem.

If you want to send music from your computer to your stereo use the audio out from your sound card and the audio IN to your amplifier and just see what you get. You may have to play around with it to get the inputs right. Basically you need a cord which has the right sized connector on each end to fit your computer's sound card and your amp's line-in hole. Good luck!
