Howard Stern on iPhone – Background Streaming – Music Dock
It’s been possible for a while to stream Sirius radio over the iPhone using the Sirius Radio application. The problem with the Sirius program is that it blocks some of the more popular channels – including Howard Stern on Howard 100 and Howard 101.
Other applications for iPhone/Touch such as Pocket Tunes ($6.99) allow for streaming of these restricted channels – but the login process has been kludgy with frequent requests to enter passwords and delays while audio buffers.
A new FREE application called MusicDock in the iTunes store connects via WiFi or 3G to Sirius and allows you to stream over 120 channels – including Howard Stern.
Did I mention this application is free? And it supports high quality audio?
An online subscription from Sirius is required to initially login and listen to the Sirius audio streams. What’s nice about MusicDock is you won’t be prompted to continuously enter a Sirius login and password. Once your login information has been entered it’s stored so in the future you can quickly start up Howard without any pesky buffering or connection issues.
