    I decided to give this neat little free app when I first got my iPod touch two weeks ago (you can stream online as well). In all honesty, from a music standpoint, I think the music quality rivals or bests Sirius/XM (which I also have). Unfortunately, it doesn't have the content stations like MLB, NFL, Stern, O&A, etc, but it's really a nice music service. You can even stream it in your car with their car kit.

    Anyone else using this?

    I love it. I have it for my BlackBerry. For MLB I have an app that is quite nice and I can listen to either teams announcer and watch clips after the game if I want.

    With slacker on the phone I can cache a station so that if I am out of range I get continuous music until I am back in tower range. The wife is paying for the premium version and she really loves it.

    Don't use that one, but I'm a Pandora junkie.

    And I have the MLB app as well. It's bad arse.

    I chose Slacker over Pandora for more skips per hour. If you are in a 3G area it is bad a, but I only wish you could stream the music and use other apps simultaneously rather than having to leave up the Slacker App.

    Every time I listen to music on my phone I use Slacker. I have also used Pandora but prefer Slacker.:rock:
