After requiring a submission fee to place AM Radio stations on its streaming platform last year, TuneIn has reversed course and has ended the practice.
Licensed AM Radio stations will now be granted access to the TuneIn On Air service free of charge. Additionally, the service will give broadcasters access to its Amplifier analytics data and has increased the sound quality of stations’ digital signal.
“The future of AM Radio is on the top of all of our minds,” said TuneIn CEO Rich Stern. “TuneIn is committed to helping AM Radio thrive in the digital world. It offers such a vast and rich library of audio programming that is integral to millions of Americans’ daily lives. Offering AM broadcasters the opportunity to digitize through TuneIn On Air for free is one way we can build a brighter future together.”
