TuneIn Carries 'WSJ' Radio Content
TuneIn, a digital audio service that makes online radio streams accessible via a range of digital platforms including mobile integration with auto dashboards, is getting access to programming from the Wall Street Journal Radio Network, including financial market updates, breaking news, business news, long-form reports, talk, and almost two dozen podcasts.
The TuneIn deal makes WSJ content available to TuneIn’s 30 million listeners.
WSJ Radio Network content accessible via TuneIn includes programs like The Wall Street Journal this Morning, The Daily Wrap with Michael Castner and The Wall Street Journal Your Money Matters.
The WSJ Radio Network currently counts over 450 affiliates around the country. For its part, TuneIn (formerly RadioTime) offers over 50,000 streaming audio stations, and powers several other online audio platforms, including Sonos and Squeezebox.
The digital radio scene has been heating up with multiple new deals, strategic partnerships, and distribution agreements. Most recently, Spotify introduced a number of new apps which allow record labels and distributors to showcase their music, including Sony Legacy and the Warner Music Group. Spotify also revealed that it’s trying to raise a new round of funding that values the company at $3.5 billion.
Pandora continues to push its distribution through deals with big carmakers, although it faces competition from other online audio services. In November, Ford made Slacker available in new cars via the Ford Sync AppLink, which allows drivers to import various online apps, including media content, via a smartphone connection.
