July 16, 2010: CBS Interactive Music Group and CBS Radio launch a new streaming platform at www.radio.com, with streams, music information, and music profile and discovery through Last.fm “scrobbling” technology. The site offers 130 CBS Radio stations.
A Radio.com iPad app debuted in April; the site includes blogs, news feeds, and video and audio from every station, with links back to station sites. The network offers nearly 250,000 content posts each month. Also up is Last.fm trends, a daily bog posts that reflects the more than 40 million “scrobbles” the site receives each day, showing which artists are played the most and who to watch for in months ahead.
Artists and stations can be shared on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and LinkedIn, among other sites.
