kexp, on your iPod [apple]

Devotion to local listener-powered radio runs high in Seattle. So, it’s very likely that certain listeners feel symptoms of withdrawal when separated from their radio or computer and a regular dose of KEXP. As usual, the internet eventually solves all problems.

Diving into the “podcast revolution” ahead of any other music radio station, KEXP is now offering a healthy serving of Northwest music in handy downloadable podcast format [kexp]. Enjoy in-studio performances [xml] or add the Northwest Music podcast [xml] to iTunes or your favorite aggregator and you’ll find fourteen genuine local hits in your playlist — perfect for those times when you’re away from the radio or when you might not love the current on air programming. For instance, the Saturday morning reggae show.

Oh, and ever-lovable Microsoft is the current holder of the patent for part of the iPod’s navigation system [p-i]
