In June 2008 miRoamer introduced its media platform for accessing Internet radio stations on portable music players, mobile phones, MP3 players and home theater systems.
This week at CES, miRoamer announced a partnership with Blaupunkt to introduce “the world’s first Internet car radio,” providing access to a diverse selection of Internet radio content through car stereos. Drivers with new Blaupunkt stereos can now tune in to miRoamer’s tens of thousands of radio stations from around the world.
