Bring your smartphones to the CMA Conference this Saturday 11th June
at The Number One Centre, 2 Didsbury Close, London, E6 2SX because
Canstreamer has now been released for the iPhone - and I might talk a
bit about it ;o)

Use your smartphone or PC to book online here:

Canstreamer is the new, exciting and free smartphone app from the
Community Media Association that has just now been released for the
iPhone - download here:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cma-canstreamer/id440524239?mt=8

Canstreamer is a smartphone app streaming UK community radio stations
and is the app that all community radio fans have been waiting for.
The app is cross-platform and the Android version is available here:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.phonegap.cmaplayer

Canstreamer has a directory of community radio stations that use the
Canstream webcasting platform - the CMA's flagship online media
platform - so that listeners can easily tune in via their smartphones.
The app also contains details about each radio station listed such as
website address, contact email and phone number so that volunteers can
get in touch with their local community radio station.

The CMA did not want to develop "yet another radio app" - we wanted to
develop something that was going to be really useful to community
radio listeners, volunteers, station managers and voluntary sector
workers and activists. So the Canstreamer app will also include sector
news from the CMA's website, funding news and technical information
from our mailing list, and a wealth of voluntary sector information
from our Twitter feed that gets updated several times a day.

We want to ensure that community radio broadcasters can be found on
the latest platforms along with other broadcasters. Canstreamer means
that community radio broadcasters are now with the technology curve if
not ahead of it and brings digital broadcasting to community-based
broadcasters at an affordable cost. Canstreamer will grow audiences
for community radio and the arts by providing an easy-to-use platform
for listening to the best of UK community radio on the move.

We intend that future releases of Canstreamer will also include
versions for the iPad and Apple Mac platforms.

The Canstreamer app has been developed with the assistance of Arts
Council Yorkshire, the Artimelt Academy and The Gist Foundation - a
grassroots technology collective in Sheffield.
