    SiriusXM for Your iPhone is Here!

    I was fortunate enough to be selected as a beta tester for Starplayr for the iPhone. I thought I would let you guys get a sneak peek.

    Three different companies combined there efforts to develop this product.

    NiceMac LLC http://www.nicemac.com - Makers of StarPlayr
    Millard Software http://www.millardsoftware.com - Makers of uSirius
    Geeks Tool Box - http://www.geekstoolbox.com - Makers of StreamSmart

    For a beta product it is very stable and full of features:

    Album Art
    Lyrics
    Buy from iTunes or Amazon Directly
    Favorite Channel List (Shake to Choose Random Favorite)
    Support for HQ Streams (wi-fi only)
    Works over Edge
    Sort by Genres

    There are currently about 250 beta testers and the plan is to submit it to the App store on January 31st. So hopefully it will be available about mid February or so. Depending on the app store back log.

    Here are some screen shots. Try not to drool on your keyboard.

    Not sure how much it is going to cost.
    Xm or Sirius subscription required.

    How much? It works if you are already a Sirius Subscriber?

    I have to say, I've been with Sirius for over a year now and this merger definitely diminished the quality of music that I've gotten. The only reason I keep Sirius at this point is because the radio in my car came disconnected from the antenna (the antenna is in my windshield) and because it's an aftermarket windshield, the warranty is voided. I refuse to pay to have the radio fixed when I pay $170/year for satellite radio.

    Do not know the price yet. No additional fees from SiriusXM. It uses your current online streaming account (Sirius Online or XMRO)

    Sirius/XM Radio is not available in Hawaii. So, this works off the internet and you still have to have a Sirius/XM subscription?

    Yes it uses the internet. You need a subscription. Sirius has $7.99 a month online only sub that does not require the purchase of any hardware.

    You need a Radio ID to sign up for XM's version.
