I'm relieved they have an android app. From listening to NPR, one could almost think andoid was some niche player, based on the amount of free press the iphone gets. That may have eased up some recently, but for a while it felt like they had some meeting where they decided to replace "smartphone" with "iphone" in everything they said.


On the website for my local NPR station (91.7 KXT, Dallas/Fort Worth) they have a playlist that shows recently played songs and the only option to "Buy Song" takes you to iTunes. I'm assuming they get a share of the revenues from songs purchased and I wish they would link to Amazon or Google Play instead so I could help support. They've introduced me to a lot of good bands and I buy a couple songs I hear on the station a week.


Nothing for Windows Phone, unfortunately. Though I suppose you have to draw the line somewhere when it comes to market share.
