Streaming service provider SurferNetwork has implemented RadioDNS to support radio stations that want to participate in hybrid radio.
“With so many features, such as ‘follow on’ that dynamically switches between broadcast and internet radio, and enhanced ‘now playing’ information, hybrid radio is the way of the future,” the New Jersey-based company stated in a press release.

WEZF(FM) Star 92.9 in Colchester, Vt., owned by Vox AM/FM, is one of the first stations to get a DNS hookup through SurferNetwork. Jamie Dennis is chief engineer and director of IT for Vox AM/FM.
Nick Piggott, project director at RadioDNS, was quoted in the SurferNetwork announcement saying, “RadioDNS is looking forward to more stations across the U.S. adopting our standards in the future.”
Bill Grywalski is president and co-founder of SurferNetwork.
