Internet Radio application for Windows Mobile

[Guest Mark in Holland]

Hello,

After a long time without a Windows Mobile device, I recently bought a HTC Touch Dual (fantastic deal, only GBP 99.99 at Device Wire!).

Can anybody give any recommendations on decent internet radio applications? I'm living in the Netherlands, and have a deal for unlimited data usage. So I was hoping to use my new Touch Dual in the car to pick up some English and French radio stations via their web sites, but not all of them seem to work using the in-built Windows Mobile browser (eg. the website of French radio Europe1). At the moment, I'm trying "Resco Radio", which seems to work quite well, but when my free trial runs out it will cost me USD 19.99 to buy it. Is there any such internet radio streaming software which is free, or is Resco Radio my only worthwhile option?

You can go to Shoutcast.com from your browser and listen to streams through TCPMP.

Tuned.mobi has almost all of the US, UK, Canada, and Australia's radio stations that have a stream.

Kinoma Freeplay has shoutcast I think. If not, do the "TrialPay", and cancel whatever membership you joined right away. Thats what I did.

Pocket Player has Shoutcast.

PocketTunes has Internet radio and a free trial.

SelectRadio has a buttload of options for streaming. Worth the price. Not finger friendly though.

Also, you can make playlists on WinAmp or Windows Media Player on your computer with radio streams from around the web and shoutcast, then import them to your phone and play them like that.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info about internet radio software. In the end, I coughed up the $20 for Resco Pocket Radio, and it's working fine. Now, my next question! I have a Parrot bluetooth carkit (the sort that just clips onto the sun visor). When I make or receive a call, it kicks in immediately, but I can't find a way to use this Parrot bluetooth carkit for the audio from my Resco Pocket Radio application. Does anybody know whether this is possible using a Bluetooth carkit, or do I need some other kind of Bluetooth (stereo?) speakers for this functionality?

How do you get your radio station to play in pocket media player or tcpmp?
