Clear Channel Launches Online Radio Player

Clear Channel has launched iheartradio.com, an ad-supported online radio player that allows consumers to listen to 350 different am/fm stations and Clear Channel’s entire library of on-demand audio and video programming.

Clear Channel claims that the number of advertisers on its digital platforms, including I Heart Radio, will grow 39% in 2009 (though they don’t specify revenues, just raw numbers of advertisers).

Cool concept, but in the Sirius/XM/ITunes era, will anyone bite?

And besides, won’t all the Clear Channel stations in the country be playing the same song? (Rim shot!)

Launch a social media campaign that will build your brand and deliver results in our online Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting June 7. Speakers include Abigail Cusick (Bravo Digital), Gregory Galant (Sawhorse Media), Alex Leo (Thomson Reuters Digital), Jim Tobin (Ignite Social Media), and many more. Read the reviews.
