Tuner Internet Radio (CNET 100: iPhone Apps)
3 of 10 from Donald Bell's favorite iPhone apps (CNET 100)
For a lot of music fans, the term "Internet radio" means more than pulling up Pandora, or hitting the radio tab in iTunes--it's that killer hip-hop station from Bangalore, or a Jamaican dub station based out of Berlin.
To me, the Tuner Internet radio app is the nail in the coffin of tabletop Internet radio receivers. For the price of a $199 iPod Touch, a $5 app, and basic A/V dock, you can turn any stereo in your home into a first-class global Internet radio. The interface isn't fancy, but the search works well, you can bookmark your favorite stations, and sort by genre.
Price: $4.99
