Radio on your 3G phone

Pleased to see in the Register that streaming radio for 3G phones has taken another step closer to reality. Ten companies are getting together to attempt what sounds like quite a neat interactive "radio" service, sending customised music, news and video-clips to users' handsets. The Reg takes quite a sceptical view towards the chances of success for such a service, but the fact is few people have any clue what is going to be a "killer" 3G service - even if there is going to be one. So the fact interactive radio doesn't figure high up on people's wish lists today probably means nothing.
