Streaming Radio to Droid by iheartradio through Clear Channel

 
Android: One thing most smartphones lack is a radio receiver, even though they make for great pocket radios. New apps from National Public Radio and Clear Channel make it nice and easy to grab local radio streams and podcasts.
so you can tune in even without a data connection. But one thing missing from many Android phones is an FM transmitte, something that seems more prevalent abroad. But the folks at Clear Channel, who own more radio stations than you probably knew existed, want to make sure you get your radio on the go and they’re way of getting it to you is iheartradio.
While iheartradio has been available on the iPhone and BlackBerry for awhile, it was just recently made available for Android. All you need is a compatible device and a data or Wi-Fi connection. It’ll even stream over 3G which is pretty cool and an advantage over other apps.
And don’t forget about how many radio stations Clear Channel owns and operates. Wikipedia, which isn’t “official” by any means, says they currently run 900+ stations.
iHeartRadio, Clear Channel Communication's own app, provides live streams for that corporation's own stations. If you're not a fan of how consolidated the public airwaves have become, you'll find it disheartening how many channels you can pick from the app's local offerings; otherwise, if you're just looking for a local drive-time show or some tunes, it's just the right app. It also offers up specialty programmed streams from artists like Weezer and local stations, if they offer them.
Both apps are free downloads and can be easily found in the Android market.
Version 2.2 Includes:

• More than 350 of America's favorite stations
  
• Artist-hosted stations from Christina Aguilera, Eagles and Weezer featuring their stories and favorite music
  
• Frequently updated traffic reports available for several major markets including New York, L.A., Chicago, San Francisco and Houston
  
• Now set a station to play automatically when you launch the App
  
• Lyrics, album art and more!
