The use for Tunein?
|
I have enabled tunein on my Stream 3, and wonder what value people are
getting from the app? So far for me there is little content that I am personally finding that I cannot access with the main Stream Internet Radio and Podcast apps. Certainly the Stream existing Podcast app is far better than anything Tunein offers I think. I have found Sky News on Tunein, which, although I have not checked, may not be available through the Stream radio app. All the other stations suggested to me are already available to me via the radio app. Tunein does make suggestions as to trending Podcasts that I should try which is useful, but so far all the suggested Podcasts which I found interesting are similarly available anyway on the Stream Podcast search and have far better navigation download and storage options. I did get briefly excited when there was a suggestion that I could listen to any Premier League Football latch through Tunein, for which I would certainly have paid the subscription. However on on further investigation this is only available to those in North America. So it is a genuine question. What does tunein offer that is not already available on the Stream? I would like to know in case I am missing a trick. David Griffith |

Don't know the answer to yor question about the value or advantages of Tune-in.? There was a pointer to a webiner or podcast about using Tune-in being put out by Humanware.? I've not heard this but it maybe worth a listen, wherever it is.

I kind of agree with you, I can access all the radio stations I want or need to via ootunes on the stream, I don't know why they had to add the tunein on the stream, I don't think it really benefits us over here greatly, I think the stream is more useful if you live in the states or Canada, apart from audio books, podcasts, internet radio, there isn't a lot on the stream that I can't do elsewhere. This is another reason apart from the financial reasons, why I am going through the devices and working out which ones really benefit me and which ones I really need, there is too much choice now. I wonder if there was a way for humanware to charge us less because we cannot get the amount of use out of the stream as they can over the water. I like my new stream but prefer the older stream in a way. If I had realised, I wouldn't have brought the stream yet. I realise eventually when they stop supporting stream mark 2 I'd have no choice if I wanted to keep using the stream but technology has moved on.If they added a few more generally used apps to the stream, agenda, weather etc, it'll be more useful but you can get all of that and more on other devices.
