Slacker Launches Premium Radio Service

Slacker Premium Radio Enables Ad-Free Personalized Radio With Unlimited Song Skipping and Track Saving Capabilities

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Slacker, Inc., the world's first Personal Radio company, today announced the availability of Slacker Premium Radio, which gives customers access to all the features and capabilities of the Slacker Basic Radio service, plus the ability to skip an unlimited number of songs while playing their favorite Slacker Radio stations.

For users of the Slacker Software Player and the Slacker Portable Player, Premium Radio also offers the power to effortlessly build a music library with saved songs that can be played anytime. These saved songs can be played individually or as a part of listener created playlists. Saved radio songs are tied to users' Premium Radio account and automatically sent to their Slacker Portable or Slacker Software libraries, where they can be played whenever they want.

"Slacker Premium Radio is for those who want even more control over their radio listening experience," said Dennis Mudd, CEO of Slacker. "We're particularly excited by the save song feature in Premium Radio, which lets people build a library of their favorite music without having to work at it."

Slacker Personal Radio enables listeners to create, edit and share their own stations or personalize over 100 professionally programmed stations. Slacker customers also have easy access to artist profiles, album reviews and cover art within the Slacker Web Player, Software Player and on the Slacker Portable Player. Personalization options include rating songs or artists, playing more popular vs. more eclectic music and listening to newer vs. classic songs.

Slacker Basic Radio will remain free to use on Slacker Software and Slacker Portable Players, while Slacker Premium Radio is available today at $7.50 per month with an annual subscription.
