Radio Time Releases Plug-in for Yahoo's Music Jukebox

DALLAS, Dec. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Radio Time announced a new way to "tune" traditional AM/FM radio from your neighborhood or across the globe. This is a big step in the company's promise to deliver traditional radio to every connected device and service. Radio Time now makes it easy to listen to live on-air personalities, sports games, favorite DJs, and global radio from over 124 countries and 79 languages through the popular Yahoo! Music Jukebox.

Radio Time is the new radio tuner that organizes 50,000 radio stations and more than 70,000 daily broadcast programs. Yahoo! Music Jukebox users simply download the free plug-in to enjoy unlimited talk, sports, public radio, or music, free -- from your hometown or around the globe. Radio stations and programs can be found by name, genre, location and through built-in suggestions for similar radio.

"Radio Time compliments our offering by allowing the Yahoo! Music user the option of listening to traditional terrestrial radio within the Yahoo! Music Jukebox," said Steve Raymond, Senior Director of Business Development for Yahoo! Music. "Our user base generally engages in a personalized, music-focused experience when using our Music Video, Launchcast, and Yahoo! Music Unlimited products, but we believe there is real value in providing a guide to the vast amount of high quality, broadcast content that is available online."

"Radio Time has made a new tuner that extends traditional radio, the radio we know and love, to new kinds of radios already inside connected devices and services," said Carl J. Rohling, VP of Business Development for Radio Time. "This plug-in makes it easy to enjoy live radio programming from a popular new radio, the Yahoo Music Jukebox."

The Radio Time plug-in is available free from Radio Time at radiotime.com/ymj or Yahoo! at gallery.yahoo.com/technology/s for the Yahoo Music Jukebox. The free plug-in uses an account from radiotime.com, the account is also available from any browser and other devices. The free plug-in allows you to find and listen to unlimited traditional radio. Get a free, optional account from radiotime.com and save favorites within Yahoo Music Engine. Favorites can also be accessed through any Radio Time connected device or website.

Radio Time also offers RedButton, optional $49 Windows software accessory that automatically time-shifts radio for DVR-style playback within the Yahoo Music Jukebox or any MP3 player. Time-shifted talk radio is automatically named and available for browsing by program title, host, or station.
