Bus A Move

Written May. 2, 2008 by Sean Ross in Internet Radio with 0 Comments

As long as we're on the subject of ampradio.com and a national younger-skewed music channel, it's worth a mention of Busradio.com, the Boston-based service that offers three channels of audio for school buses and is now streaming what appears to be the oldest-targeted of the three versions online. While parts of the station sounded voice-tracked, there was a real afternoon drive team handling such topics as letting your best friend tag along on a date. There's also the "win a free concert for your school" promotion (with Boys Like Girls, in this case). In other words, it's much more of a "real" radio station than the great bulk of what I'm uncovering on the Web or HD-2 multicast channels.

Here's BusRadio.com just before 4 p.m. ET yesterday:

Jesse McCartney, "Leavin'"
Sum 41, "With Me"
Lloyd, "You"
Taylor Swift, "Our Song"
Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown, "No Air"
Colbie Caillat, "Bubbly"
Teyana Taylor, "Google Me"
Panic at the Disco, "Nine in the Afternoon"
Ciara, "1, 2 Step"
Natasha Bedingfield, "These Words"
Creed, "One Last Breath"
Mario, "Crying Out For Me"
Fall Out Boy & John Mayer, "Beat It"
Timbaland & Onerepublic, "Apologize"
Sara Bareilles, "Love Song"
