Torian Wireless Partners With RadioTime As Its Radio Aggregator

DALLAS, Texas & MELBOURNE, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Torian Wireless, an Australian-based global innovator in the Internet radio industry, today announced a partnership with RadioTime, a developer of technology for finding and listening to more than 50,000 radio stations online, that positions RadioTime as Torian’s radio aggregation supplier. The agreement is a worldwide license and marketing deal, where RadioTime is the official provider behind Torian’s iRoamer free radio platform offerings.

“Not only will end-users benefit from the vast selection of stations and streams they will now be able to access, but OEMs will benefit as well”

With the partnership, Torian has licensed RadioTime content as its radio listings aggregator for powering AM/FM radio access through its iRoamer Internet radio platform, offered to original equipment manufacturers (OEM). iRoamer provides a complete solution for manufacturers, who for the first time can offer a packaged Internet media solution into any consumer electronics product. OEMs can benefit from the category-leading software for radio entertainment in their portable product/s, ultimately allowing end-users to take their Internet radio experience away from the desktop through iRoamer-powered products. With the RadioTime partnership, end-users can now access over 100,000 local and syndicated AM/FM radio programs airing worldwide, as well as the world’s largest and most diverse selection of premium online music services, and then customize how they access that content.

“Not only will end-users benefit from the vast selection of stations and streams they will now be able to access, but OEMs will benefit as well,” said George Parthimos, founder and CEO, Torian Wireless. “With the addition of RadioTime content to our universal iRoamer Internet radio platform, manufacturers can offer the world’s largest and most diverse selection of Internet radio content with their consumer electronics products, as well as enormous advertising opportunities at the same time.”

RadioTime’s unique online RadioGuide provides listeners with the ability to search for a specific station or program or browse by genre or location to easily see what is available for their tastes, locations, connections, and the times of day. RadioTime updates its guide with input from its user community and by leveraging its relationships with Clear Channel, Cox Radio and other broadcasters.

“Torian Wireless brings a long-established record of innovation, Wi-Fi expertise, integrated content services, hardware components and turn-key solutions,” said Bill Moore, CEO, RadioTime. “RadioTime’s contributions to this partnership are the most complete and accurate radio directory, millions of listeners and relationships with broadcasters such as Cox Radio and Clear Channel. I see this as a very promising relationship with significant opportunities as Internet radio continues to move forward and gain momentum.”
