European Radio Network (ERN)
has launched EuroMix Online,
a Web site that provides Internet radio listeners with full access
to streamed audio from ERN’s multi-lingual radio station.
ERN, part of London-based
World Radio Network (WRN),
is hosting the new site which has been designed by
Adept Web in Ramsgate.
Other features to be found at EuroMix Online are
full access to information about the four ERN stations,
entry forms for ERN competitions, and links to
contributing broadcasters.
“WRN is at the forefront of broadcasting technology
and the new EuroMix web site will reflect not only this, but
also the rich cultural diversity of Europe,” said Chantal
Cooke, ERN project manager.
Later in 2000, there will also be full streaming access
to the three new EuroMax stations (note: “EuroMix” and “EuroMax” are
separate brands).
WRN will launch its first EuroMax station, broadcasting in
German, on January 18. This will be followed by
French and English stations in the second half of
the year.
On the Internet, WRN currently offers an audio-on-demand
service which includes programmes in more than a
dozen different languages. It also provides a live
relay of its English and German language services
on Real Audio and Microsoft’s Media Player.
WRN has been on-air since 1993, its 24-hour-a-day English
language serice WRN1 being available throughout Europe,
the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Pacific and North America.
