My brother was recently telling me his pal listens to internet radion in his car by using bluetooth on his car radio to pick up his smartphone taht runs the internet radio app.

Just curious are any of you car boardsies using internet radio in your cars yet and if so how is performing?

Yup. Have a DIY setup with an Aldi radio and a line in tucked behind the dash and emerging at the handbrake. Also have a DIY set up that allows me to charge the phone at the same time.

I use Tune In Radio Pro on a Samsung Galaxy S from 3 with unlimited data.

Total cost: €15 approx not including the radio which was about €80 but was in way before I set up the other stuff.

I can play Internet radio through my bluetooth. Use it sometimes from my lastfm account. Quality depends on your mobile connection.

Hmmm i really should use it more often. Have an Aldi radio with Bluetooth that I use to listen to my mp3s, never actually thought about using it for the radio!

I listen to internet radio in the car all the time. I connect my phone to the stereo and very rarely have connection problems. I use the TuneIn app. I never come close to my monthly allowance (15 gigs I think)
