Slacker radio is one of the best music discovery, custom radio station websites on the internet.  It is a website that I use daily on my unlocked cell phone and really helps pass the time while surfing on the internet.  This website works much like Pandora where you can search for artists or songs and create radio stations to listen to based on your likes and dislikes.  During the recent CTIA conference Slacker Radio announced that their Windows Mobile app will be launching very soon and with that release Slacker will be available for every major smartphone platform.

All early accounts are very positive when it comes to this new app.  The album art is quite massive and really allows you to enjoy all of the aspects of each album you are listening to.  The user interface is very easy to use and really helps the whole app seem to be very user friendly.  Their new app had most of the aspects you would come to expect from Slacker including artist bios, album reviews, song lyrics, liking/banning songs, etc. except for the offline station caching feature which allows you to listen to your stations without a data connection.  Slacker also confirmed that a Windows Phone 7 port of the application is in the works.  This will make a great addition to the highly anticipated Windows phone set to hit the market this summer.

Slacker is also in the process of creating a station caching version for the iPhone.  With this version you will be able to listen to all of your favorite songs and stations without having a data connection.  This will certainly take the Slacker app to new levels and really allow the app’s users to fully enjoy all of the fantastic features that are commonly associated with Slacker.
