Online radio heavyweights iHeartRadio and Pandora are fighting to take over the internet radio universe. Both apps are free in Apple’s App Store and offer similar products. The apps allow users to create radio stations based on their music tastes. Users choose an artist or song for each station and like or dislike each song played to further personalize the station. Pandora is currently winning this fight with over 100 million registered users. In an effort to catch up, iHeartRadio is putting everything on the line. An updated interface, music festival, ad-free promotion through 2011, and a large music selection of 11 million songs have made iHeartRadio a strong competitor. I have been testing these apps out for the past few weeks. Each has its strong suits, but one is slightly better than the other. Check back later this week to see which app takes the title as best online radio app!
