Super Bowl listening guide

Sometimes you're just anywhere near a 52 inch surround sound uber media extravaganza. So how can Pocket Tunes Radio help you to keep up with the game?

Well we made it easy to connect to stations that may carry the game. We say "may" because even if a station has the broadcast rights , they may not have the streaming rights for Internet Radio.

So what we have done is added tags for all the Saints and Colts affiliates that stream on the Internet. We have also added a tag "Super Bowl". In addition, Westwood One is the radio network carrying the Super Bowl radio broadcast so we added a tag to the Westwood One stations that we know of. S

Here is how to access those stations. But first we have to emphasize that not all stations will have the streaming rights even when they have the broadcast rights. So you may have to try a few stations before you find one that is streaming the game. That is something beyond our control as it is each individual station that determines whether it will be blacking out the game on the Internet or not.

So first update your catalog: http://bit.ly/eA5vu .

That will ensure you have the additions we made.

Now go to the search tab and enter whichever of the following search terms suits you, you can include the quotes or not, it won't matter unless noted.

Enter "Saints", you will get all the stations that are listed as affiliate stations for the Saints broadcast

Enter "Colts" to get the Colts affiliates.

Enter "Super Bowl" (in quotes) to get all stations that are affiliates of either Super Bowl team

Enter "Westwood One" (in quotes) to get all Westwood One stations.

We recommend starting with the stations in the Sports or Talk groups so scroll down your results to that area and pick a station. If it plays the broadcast, you're set, if it doesn't, go to the next station and repeat until you find a station that plays the game on the net.

Feel free to tweet us (@PocketTunes) if you find a station that works, we will also send a tweet out when we find stations that are streaming the game.

Follow us on Twitter to get the Tweet updates on stations playing the game: http://twitter.com/PocketTunes

Enjoy the game!!
