Online radio service Radionomy formally launches today in the U.S. "Radionomy is for fans who are passionate about creating and sharing content on their own station, and for whom sharing a song or playlist just isn’t enough," said Thierry Ascarez, VP of Business Development for Radionomy. "It’s also for listeners that may not want to create their own station, but want to discover and enjoy content programmed by a person, not an algorithm." Radionomy users create its programming and the service takes care of online broadcasting, rights management, scheduling and audience reporting. More information can be found at radionomy.com.
