<h2><b><font size=5 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:18.0pt'>Folder
and Aim Launch Free RadioPlayer Service<o:p></o:p></span></font></b></h2>
<div>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Today
we’ve announced a new relationship with All in Media and are offering a new
free service to UK Radio stations. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>The BBC
and RadioCentre have been working together to create a single online radio
player for all participating radio stations. The idea is that stations
players’ will share a similar look and feel, have common functionality
and allow users to switch between stations through presets or a comprehensive
search engine.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Today at
the Radio Festival in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Manchester</st1:place></st1:City>,
the Managing Director of RadioPlayer demoed the new system to delegates –
you can see it below. The aim is to provide a player that encourages online
listening, makes it easier for listeners and creates a great online radio
experience. The infrastructure for the system is now in place and some big
radio stations have committed to ensuring when people press ‘Listen Live’
it will better reflect their brand and be a great listen. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>The first
key partners – Global Radio, BBC and GMG – working with the
RadioPlayer team have created a way to collect data from radio stations –
station, now playing and schedule information – as well as designing
interesting web-style content for the player window.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>At
Folder, we think RadioPlayer’s going to be a game-changer and it’s
going to be driven by the user. The online radio experience for most stations
is quite poor, it’s confusing and everyone does something different. The
current on-line listening share is surprisingly small – there’s no
reason why it shouldn’t be higher. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>However,
what the big radio groups have been doing is sorting out their now playing
data, making sure the schedule is up to date and integrating on-demand and
listen-again. The stations that do well in RadioPlayer are the ones that look
good and have good searchable data. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>RadioPlayer’s
potential for smaller stations is huge. Search and presets will allow smaller
stations to be findable and returned to more often. However to do this small
stations need the tools to punch above their weight and deliver on the promise.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Today,
Folder Media and All in Media are announcing that we’re going to provide
some free tools to update stations metadata. We’ll hook up your playout
system, give you access to update your schedule through the web and provide a
player window that’s attractive –and we’ll do it for free.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>It will
give any station that’s able to be part of RadioPlayer the ability to
compete with the big boys. Once you get going and we start seeing how listeners
are using it, we can then also help you to enhance the service and generate
revenue for you station.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>To
register your interest, email <a href="mailto:radioplayer@foldermedia.co.uk"
modo=false><font color="#003399"><span style='color:#003399'>radioplayer@foldermedia.co.uk</span></font></a>
and we’ll be in touch. And anyway, what have you got to lose –
it’s a free offer!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
