    WFMU Radio on the iPhone

    New Jersey’s WFMU (arguably one of the best radio stations in the country) is now streaming to iPhones and iPod Touches via a web app.

    As it’s a web app and not a full blown application, it’s available to everyone – including all twelve people who still haven’t jailbroken their iPhones. The stream comes in two flavors: 128k for streaming over a WiFi connection, and 32k for EDGE. You can also listen to a number of the station’s podcasts.

    While continuous streaming solutions (e.g. iRadio, MobileScrobbler) have been available on jailbroken iPhones for a while, WFMU is the first to offer a radio stream to vanilla devices.

    To tune in, point your iPhone or iPod Touch to http://iphone.wfmu.org/
