Hello,
Kinda new to all this blackberry thing.This is a longshot maybe, but I was wondering if it is possible to listen to internet radios on the BB?

akosnitzky · **OS:** 5.0.0.230

Check out Pandora, Slacker and Iheart.

SteveO86 · **OS:** 5.0.0.320

Yep, you can find them all pretty easily by using app world. which you can download from mobile.blackberry.com

oh great.these work with any radio or how?do I need to do anything else or just use one of these apps?

SteveO86 · **OS:** 5.0.0.320

They are internet radio not FM/AM/XM.. Best bet is use them them and see which one you prefer.. I'm really liking Pandora but that's just me.

Or you can just record the online radios you like and transfer them to the BB. I use such an app, Radiotracker, though I initially got it before I had a BB,to record some stations I liked and listen to them on the mp3 player.

Well thanks, gonna look at this one too, though I hope it's nothing hard to use.For what stations works this app you're talking about?

inezpearl · 06-17-2009, 06:20 AM

user music library options that you can turn off. We have made a lot of bug
fixes in sound volume, headphones, bluetooth, phone call handling, and more.
You can now also tweet about a song you like to all your followers on Twitter.

Then point your browser on your BlackBerry to flycast.fm/betabby

We have archived the current beta and you can roll back if you have problems.

Hey! I use SlackerRadio and love it. It's free.

mckray · 09-17-2009, 10:43 AM

Well i't not free, but I say it's worth it.Saved me a lot of money.

I use the streamripper plugin for winamp to do that, it comes in handy when I don't have a good enough signal to listen live.

Another option barry is BerryTunes if you want to pay for an app. It's not flashy but you can program in a stream url.

The OP's profile says Model: 7250. Do Slacker, Pandora, etc. work on older models?

Edit, partially answered my own question. Pandora works with the devices shown here:
Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music

iheartradio works with devices shown here:
Your iPhone & BlackBerry are Now Radios - iheartradio.com 350+ Radio Stations, Videos & More
list here:
iheartradio.com 350+ Radio Stations, Videos & More

Edit... found info about Slacker.

Quote:

The Slacker Mobile application is compatible with BlackBerry Device Software version 4.3 and higher

Slacker on Blackberry is now available - Orbitcast

I was talking about Radiotracker.Oh well, since I have it I might as well put it to good use, that's one of the reasons why I don't use other apps.

moodio.fm allows you to stream any station. You can also add stations that are not in their database. The best thing since sliced bread!
