Slacker Radio iPhone Application Review

Hot on the heels of the Slacker app for BlackBerry announcement the other day, comes a Slacker Radio application for the iPhone. I love my Slacker G2 Personal Radio, so I was anxious to check out how this free application on the iPhone compared to it.
To use this app, you’ll need a Slacker Radio account. Don’t worry, it’s free. If you happen to already have a premium account, you can use it to login to the iPhone app. Here are some of the features:
• Free music library featuring millions of songs• High-quality stereo playback from any wireless connection• Over 100 professionally programmed genre stations• Create custom artist stations• Fine tune stations to play more of the music you like• View artist biographies and photos• View album art and reviews• “Peek Ahead” artist and album preview• Pause and skip songs• Rate songs as favorites• Ban the songs and artists you don’t like The first time you launch the Slacker player, you’ll be in your station listing screen. Your favorite and custom stations are shown at the top. Custom channels are created on the Slacker website. As far as I can tell, there isn’t a way to create one through the iPhone app. When you scroll the station screen, you will see a list of different genres of music. Tapping the genre name will take you to another screen…With individual stations for that genre. Tapping a station will let you listen to music in that station. To add that

station to your favorites, you tap the station title bar at the top of the display. From there you can add it to your favorites. It doesn’t look like there is a way to remove favorites through the app… Yes folks, there is a Jack Bauer Slacker station…
