Mumbai June 18 Tata Teleservices said it will be offering Internet radio services with its Tata Indicom mobile phone service.

As many as 41 international and domestic radio stations will be available on Tata Indicom phones across all Tata Indicom circles, even in those markets where FM services have not commenced, said a statement from the company.

This service is currently available on the Motorazr V3C, Samsung Wideo and Motorola World Phone handsets, at a subscription charge of Rs 25 for 15 days.

`Tata Indicom Mobile Internet Radio', will offer live streaming world radio-casts in English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and other international languages with MP3 quality sound, according to the company.

The product is easy to use and the wireless technology doesn't even get in the way of a musical experience, said Mr Pankaj Sethi, President of value added services, Tata Teleservices Ltd.

"We have identified mobile entertainment as a key growth driver and we are confident that this service will help deliver an amazing radio experience to our customers," he added.

The service offers international music, news and sports radio stations, including Bloomberg, BBC, CNN, Fox Radio, ESPN Radio and Seattle WM.
