SAN DIEGO, April 24-- MP3tunes - http://www.mp3tunes.com/ - is pleased to announce that the MP3tunes Music Locker will be available on Reciva-powered Internet radio devices, enabling customers to listen to their own music collections, as well as the world of Internet radio from the same device. Effective immediately, the Music Locker will be accessible on the Tangent Quattro, Revo Pico Wi-Fi, OXX Digital Classic 600, and Grace Wireless Internet Radio, which are widely available in the United States through retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, C.Crane, Circuit City, Crutchfield, Firebox, Fry's and Newegg. Access will be enabled on an additional 40 Reciva-enabled Internet radio products across the UK and Europe within the next 60 days.

Reciva-powered radios allow users easy and convenient access to over ten thousand live radio stations from across the world without the need for a PC. Such choice might sound intimidating, but finding content is as easy as turning the dial on a traditional radio set. Except now, turning the dial doesn't mean tuning into specific radio frequencies: instead, web addresses for specific online radio stations or archived radio programs and podcasts are being accessed through the radio.

With an MP3tunes account, users can now also access their own digital music collection on Reciva-powered Internet radios from anywhere in the world at any time. Users can also create a Smart Play Mix for playback on their Internet radio device.

"Reciva powers more Internet radio devices than anyone in the world, and when our Music Locker technology is added to its capabilities, consumers win big because they can listen to their personal music collections through a dazzling array of product offerings from so many well-known brands," commented Michael Robertson, CEO of MP3tunes. "With a Reciva-powered consumer electronics device, you can completely free your personal digital music collection from the PC for greater and more complete entertainment value."

Users can easily create a secure, customized Music Locker to store their personal digital music collections and stream the music through any Reciva-powered device, anywhere they are. The Music Locker includes free software that makes for simple syncing of digital music and is also accessible for listening from any web browser.
