Radio Free Virgin will be available on SpeedCast’s NetTV which started last week. It brings the listener music through digital distribution, both on and off the desktop. The company’s state-of-the-art, CD-quality streaming audio will be used by Internet Service Providers in Asia and the Middle East. They will distribute Radio Free Virgin’s premier music content and CD-quality stations.
The Los Angeles based company’s music channels represent a combination of well-known brands, as well as original Radio Free Virgin programming. The music is a mix of pop, hip-hop, funk, reggae, jazz and rock.
Speedcast hopes to connect with music buffs who want to keep themselves updated with happenings on the international music scene. Radio Free Virgin claims to offer unique programming that can’t be found on traditional radio. The company hopes the new relationship will help it penetrate the Asian markets. Speedcast’s NetTV delivers streaming multimedia video and audio content to the edge of the Internet, thus avoiding the problem of traffic getting blocked on the internet.
