Bosch has incorporated Rdio into its mySPIN platform for its dashboard, and Apple”s InControl Apps platform puts Rdio in Jaguar and Land Rover infotainment systems. As part of the initial rollout, Rdio is accessible to subscribers of the unlimited music service in Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles where InControl Apps is installed, and Rdio”s free Internet radio solution will be integrated later this year.

Rdio content will also soon be available through a pre-loaded app on Hisense smart TVs and other connected devices, building on Rdio”s current TV presence through Roku (the Roku remote control includes an Rdio button), its existing customized app on Google Chromecast, and upcoming HTML5-based smart TV compatibility.
