Hmm, woulda been nice!


I told you guys a few months ago there's a way to get FFR on the iPhone, but it's sort of complicated (well, not for people who know how to use programs like WinAmp) and involved buying an app.

Now they'll be releasing software that will make it just as easy to tune in on your iPhone as it is on the computer.

The new 3.0 operating system for
Apples iPhone and iPod Touch devices 1374.jpgwill include support for audio and video streaming through the gadgets Safari web browser. Ars Technicas Chris Foresman reports that the new OS adds HTML 5 support to the iPhones web browser, which then enables web streaming and the automatic selection of the best bitrate to use based on network speeds. Foresman told RAIN that this should allow users to tune in to any webcast that uses the HTTP protocol, though it does not allow for Flash-based streaming. A rep from Apple confirmed this, stating that any source using open standards like AAC and H.264 can be streamed from the Safari web browser. The new OS is available to download (free for iPhones, $10 for iPod Touches) on June 17.

JR, with this kind of technology potentially opening your listenership up, I would think that alone would excite you enough to try and get the station to the level you always wanted.
