Get Local News on Your Motorola Cell Phone with iRadio

Motorola has just announced the addition of Taldia to provide local, regional, and national news through their IRadio service.

Taldia aggregates information using local newspapers and the Associated Press to deliver news about business, health, sports, entertainment, technology, and international news.

This benefits the consumer, because he’ll have access to current news using his Motorola handset instead of having to sit down and watch television.

“Over the years, terrestrial radio has lost much of its local connection and character as the radio industry has consolidated,” said Dave Ulmer, senior director of marketing, Motorola Digital Media Services. “Motorola iRadio is bringing back local content and making it accessible whenever and wherever you want it, directly from the one device you are never without – your mobile phone.”

“We are excited to bring our client Newspapers and AP content to Motorola iRadio listeners who want their news up-to-date and on-the-go,” said Rys Fairbrother, Taldia founder and president. “This agreement will provide added value for our clients with additional distribution and to iRadio subscribers, who treasure their news as much as their music, and will help iRadio extend the reach of print news into the growing realm of personalized digital audio content.”

This digital music service is highly portable. You can use it to stream audio through your car speakers and your home stereo. iRadio currently offers 600 channels of content, including music, news, language courses, and self-help programs just to name a few.
