TUNE's Internet Radio and INTC deal Without much fanfare Intel INTC has quietly made a deal with TUNE to become the sole sponsor of its groundbreaking FlashRadio- described as a visual radio station - "TCI Music, Inc.'s SonicNet (http://www.sonicnet.com) and Macromedia's ShockRave (http://www.shockrave.com) will debut SonicNet FlashRadio, the first Internet radio station to entertain viewers with a lively mix of music hits, nonstop animations and music news -- all on one screen. Intel Corporation is the exclusive sponsor of this SonicNet and ShockRave co-production." biz.yahoo.com flashradio.com Intel has been signaling its interest in the online music area thru partnerships with Liquid Audio among others- TUNE may play some part in its plans. While the market has been entranced by NAVR Navarre and the prospects for its Net Radio property, left undiscovered is TUNE's Sonicnet Internet Radio division {http://www.sonicnet.com/ click on Guide then Radio/Internet Radio}and TUNE's DMX Music division- which offers 95 channels of digital(read internet) music including a Virtual DMX player dmxmusic.com . TUNE's inroads into internet radio combined with its Box Network video service likely played a part in AOL's decision to make TUNE an anchor tenant in its soon to debut music site. TUNE/AOL for internet radio? But like BCST Broadcast.com TUNE offers both audio and video programming over the internet. We'll see- traders may expect a release on the opening of the AOL/TUNE site-sometime this month. "Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- SonicNet, a wholly owned subsidiary of (TUNE)TCI Music, Inc.,announced today that it will be an anchor tenant in the Music area on America Online, launching in December." biz.yahoo.com NandoNet is reporting that TUNE has a deal with DLIA dELiA*s Inc.,the teenage clothing retailer, whose stock rocketed on word that it would open an internet site- "the company said it was working in an alliance with ChickClick.com, an online advertising network and unit of Imagine Media Inc., to create a network of Web sites geared to teenage girls, to be known as gURLNet.com. The company also said it had created a new music area wtihin the existing gURL.com web site with content supplied by SonicNet, an online music network and unit of Tele-Communications Inc." techserver.com Finally TUNE is majority owned by cable giant TCI, moving to complete its merger with ATT. So what do Intel, Disney-GTE-Ameritech, TCI-ATT and AOL have in mind for TUNE? Anyone's guess- but it might be worth noting that TUNE offers both audio and video programming over the internet-not unlike recent IPO high flyer Broadcast.com BCST-trading 55s- though TUNE concentrates on the music arena while BCST offers a range of programming areas.Given its connections to these leaders TUNE may be worth watching.
