Vince,
Thanks; I had forgotten about IHeart radio.
Would I be right in saying this service has ads and you select what station 
you want similar to a traditional radio?
Since it is free, do they limit how long you can listen to it at a time?
Does IHeart radio have a classical, soft rock, oldies and Christian music 
stations? I ask since I'd like to listen to that sort of radio station and 
our radio services in the DC area no longer have some of those options. I 
really miss 103.5 FM which used to be a classical station.

The subscription services such as apple music do not have ads is my 
understanding.

I actually listened to both tune-in and IHeart radio a few times on my 
laptop which is my mobile device for now.

Again, thanks, and its nice to know about accessible music services.

Ashley

I use iHeart radio.  The free service is just fine for me.  Accessibility is
good as well.

I only buy songs via my iPhone from the iTunes store.
