Entercom Communications announced Tuesday (July 1) it is expanding the  
distribution of its radio stations to mobile devices through a deal  
with FlyTunes, a company that delivers audio, video and podcasts to  
Apple iPhone and iPod Touch via a Web-based system.

Entercom is the first terrestrial broadcast group to join FlyTunes  
network, which currently offers 650 channels of audio, video and  
podcasts at no charge.

Internet streams immediately available via FlyTunes are three Entercom  
stations in San Francisco (KOIT-FM, KDFC-FM and KBWF-FM) and four in  
Seattle (KNDD-FM, KMTT-FM, KISW-FM and KKWF-FM). Additional Entercom  
station Internet streams will roll out to the FlyTunes network over  
the next 90 days.

"Entercom takes pride in being a pioneer in providing digital options  
to its millions of listeners around the country," said Sandy Smallens,  
senior vp of digital for Entercom.

Entercom will be working with FlyTunes to sell additional ad inventory  
on the service as it grows, said Sandy Smallens, senior vp of digital  
for Entercom. The radio company declined to comment on financial terms  
or any revenue share from advertising.
