RadioSherpa Widget Tags HD Radio Broadcasts for Apple Users

(PRLEAP.COM) RadioSherpa (www.radiosherpa.com), a company that continues to be on the forefront of new HD Radio applications, announced today the release of a new widget for your Apple Dashboard. The RadioSherpa widget automatically tags all your favorite radio broadcasts so that you can quickly find and listen to your favorite song or program. The widget allows users to further refine their search by customizing its real-time station guide by genre or city.

"Bringing RadioSherpa to the Apple Dashboard has always been a top priority for us", said Sasha Javid, co-founder of RadioSherpa. "Apple users have come to expect applications that are both intuitive and entertaining. The RadioSherpa widget with its real-time tagging capability allows users to quickly review a list of music playing on their favorite stations and then stream it. If the user decides that he/she that he would like to buy the song, a single-click will bring the user directly to that iTunes download."

The number of HD Radio stations across the country is now approaching 1500 stations. Many of the new HD2 stations are commercial-free and are playing music not heard on traditional radio. RadioSherpa is facilitating bringing this new music to people around the country. With its service already in Boston, New York and San Francisco, and expanding quickly, more and more people are discovering RadioSherpa applications. The RadioSherpa Dashboard widget (www.radiosherpa.com/widgets/dashboard) will introduce HD Radio to the Mac.

"Many Apple Die-Hards have made their Macs their entertainment center", Javid said. "With the RadioSherpa widget, users will have easy access to this new radio content in a fashion that is unobtrusive and similar to surfing your car radio. This particular widget for the Mac is only the start…we are going to redefine how people think about radio."
