Default Any Radio for iPhone?

Is there any way to stream FM radio or any radio to the stock iPhone? For ex. on windows mobile you can go to radio4pda.com and listen to live local & nationwide fm radio. There must be at least a website that is iPhone compatible, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong but dosent orb only work on windows computers? I have a MacBook but I could bootcamp it to use orb but I beleive I will still need a tv tuner which isn't built in on the macbook. There must be an easier solution.

You could try seeqpod. I've heard it works well on iPhones.

Orb only needs to run on a local windows computer to listen to our own mp3's or XM or Sirius.

If you want to listen to internet streaming with orb you do not need to have the client running.

Just paste the URL of the stream in to your orb internet radio favorites. Then log in to mycast.orb.com on your iphone to listen.

You need to find the url to the stream. Not the url to the radio station flash player. I use a window program called url helper to get the actual stream url's for me.

Also, clear channel streams will not work. They set a token so you have to use their player, which is flash and does not run on the iphone.

Where can 1 find this program? I spent hours trying to find URLs by using google then I gave up since 98% of them didnt work.

So I have to bootcamp windows on my macbook, install orb and keep the computer always on to stream?

As much as I HATE clear channel, they have took over all my local radio stations. I could use orb to stream some underground internet radio though it seems there should be an easier way?

iRadio app on Installer... has hundreds of streaming radio and simulcasted stations. It's a little buggy, but for underground radio - it's fantastic!
I'm listening to a jamaican talk radio station from Kingston right now....
