Motorola has launched Motorola iRadio, a subscription music service that moves from home to car stereo to wireless headphones, and is powered by a mobile handset. Motorola iRadio is initially launching with 435 commercial-free radio channels. Consumers can personalize their radio listening by choosing from a comprehensive selection of musical styles, including: Over 40 styles of Rock, from Grunge to Heavy Metal to Hair Bands to Classic Rock; Twelve different Jazz stations; and Specialty channels spotlighting specific themes such as 1 Hit Wonders, Rockin' Cowboys, Just Broke Up, and Angry Women. In addition, listeners can bookmark an individual song by pressing a button on their phone or car stereo, making it easy to recall the name of a favorite song.
