“We are excited to bring the love of radio to Groove,” said Michele Laven, President of Business Development and Partnerships for iHeartMedia. “With the ability to listen to thousands of live radio stations and create custom stations from more than 20 million songs and 800,000 artists, there’s a station to fit every music taste.”
Iheartradio. What a vast wasteland of nothingness. It's only a vehicle to spam you with mindless ads, public service spots and tired "music history" spots that are repeated endlessly. I have tried to listen and run from the room screaming. I end up listening to internet radio from Australia, New Zealand, Ireland or the U.K. They still have great radio, like it once was in America.
I'm glad I read your post I was going to try it but I hate crap, I'm on Apple music at the moment to see if it's worth $10 a month, at least I hear what I want to hear, a lot of old Jazz, Blues and old Pop etc.
Sounds like you and I have similar music tastes. For music I've been using Pandora.
I was tuned into iHeartradio mainly for talk shows. But all of their stations seem to be spammed with mindless crap ads, and like I said endless repeats of the same public service announcements (to fill where they couldn't sell an ad?) and endless repeats of a "music history" feature that seems to repeat every 10 minutes with the same episode. Aaaaaaaaaagh! Whoever produces iHeartradio must not listen to it or they would go nuts. Hey, maybe that explains it.
Anyway, for talk shows try LBC London, 2GB Sydney, ZB Wellington NZ and 106.0 Dublin (Use direct links on their websites, not an iHeartradio link). Reminds me of the good old days from long ago at KGO San Francisco.
Yeah, don't like ads that's why I'm paying $10 a month so I can listen to non stop flowing music of my choice. I'll give Pandora and a couple of others a try after I've played around with Apple Music for a while.
