- Audacy has eliminated its application of the Roku platform
- There has not been an official announcement so far
- The best alternatives offer a lot of content
If you have been using the Audacy application to transmit radio stations, podcasts or music through your Roku or TV device, I have some bad news: Audacy has eliminated the application of the platform.
It is understandably annoying many listeners. Audacy is a great fish in the transmission pond, which offers names that include CNN, CBS Sports Radio and many more, as well as many podcasts and music.
We do not know why Audacy has decided to pull its application, but Cord Cutters News has some possible explanations: maybe they did not like the terms of their Roku agreement, or perhaps it is part of a change of approach that will mean concentrating on less platforms. But whatever the explanation means that Audacy listeners will need an alternative, and these are some of the best options.
What applications are good replacements for Audacy?
There is no shortage of audio applications at the Roku Channel store, and the first to review is IHEART. It is one of the largest radio streamers, with the most popular AM and FM stations in North America cities, as well as a good selection of radio stations, podcasts and music from all over the world.
The other great name here is Tune in. Like Iheart, it has a large selection and includes channels of big names such as NPR, CNN, ESPN Radio and the BBC.
Siriusxm Another known name that offers a mixture of music, podcasts and chat, and there are many thematic music streamers that cover each imaginable niche: Yacht Rock Miami, someone?
If you sail through the music and podcasts section of the channel store you will also find the great audio transmission weapons, such as Apple Music (but unfortunately not Apple Podcasts), Amazon Music, Spotify, YouTube (many audio podcasts also load video versions for the video transmitter) and Pandora.
