Public Radio Making Public Radio Obsolete?

paidContent.org is running an interesting “article” on Public Radio in which it says that Public Radio is Dangerously Close To Making Public Radio Obsolete:rdio.jpg

The Public Radio Exchange has just released the 2.0 version of its iPhone app, which aggregates almost all the public radio stations in the U.S. This tuner is a collaboration by some of the biggies in the public-radio space: NPR, Public Interactive, American Public Media, and Public Radio International (PRI). The 1.0 version of app has already gotten some rave reviews, but the 2.0 version, released this weekend, goes a lot further: besides streams, it has started showing what’s on right now on those stations, a seemingly small but game-changing move.

Read more about this, the addition of podcasts/downloads and various search and directory listing options to 2.0 here
and learn why the authors thinks the 2.0 app is one major step to making public radio listening on radio obsolete.
