Rock and Roll all summer long with a free subscription to Slacker Premium Radio!

By Michelle Haag on 30 May 2012 08:45 pm

We're giving away free subscriptions to Slacker Premium Radio! Details below!

Summer is quickly approaching and that means travel, long days at the beach, and plenty of opportunity to listen to great music on your BlackBerry. Streaming radio apps are great for not only hearing your favorite tunes, but also discovering new music, and one of our favorites for BlackBerry is Slacker Radio. With free and premium options, there is something for everyone.

Listen to all of your favorite personalized Slacker stations on your BlackBerry for free! You can listen to over 100 stations programmed by music experts or create your own custom stations right from your BlackBerry. You'll have detailed artist biographies, full album reviews and more. Best of all, with a Radio Plus subscription, the music can be stored on your phone so you can listen even when you don't have a connection! While Slacker Radio is free for everyone to enjoy, a subscription to Slacker Premium adds on-demand music access, removes ads/skip limits and includes the ability to cache stations/playlists/entire albums to your mobile device for listening without Wi-Fi or data use. You can compare plans and find out more information at www.slacker.com.

So, let's get summer kicked off right, with some free subscriptions to Slacker Radio! Whether you listen to it on your BlackBerry, PlayBook, or some other mobile device, you can take your music with you and rock all summer long. We have four 3-month subscriptions and one 1-year subscription for Slacker Premium Radio to give away this week. To enter, leave a comment below and let us know where you'll be rocking this summer! One entry per person please. Contest ends Sunday at midnight. Good luck!

Without a native Pandora application on the PB, I extensively use Slacker to stream my music. Would love a whole year subscription!! :)

Navzar May 31, 2012 at 10:27 am

The gym!

dakid72 May 31, 2012 at 10:33 am

A subscription to Slacker Premium Radio would mean I can listen 25/8 and literally have it on all the time.......of course that means that my Berry de 9930 would be permanently attached to a power source, but having great music all the time is awesome.
Thanks in advance CrackBerry and Slacker Radio!
Special Thanks to Michelle Haag for pushing this.......I know you had a hand in this!

Don't judge me people, sucking up never hurt anyone :-)

dangbin May 31, 2012 at 10:34 am

sg701 May 31, 2012 at 10:45 am

I'd be a slacker if I didn't bother to enter this contest to be a true Slacker. Although, if I win would I then be a Crackberry Slacker?

cvirata May 31, 2012 at 10:47 am

I'll be rockin' anywhere the Alberta sun shines. I'd love to get a premium subscription as most of the stations I pick are usually limited by the "free/lite" version.

Bold 9900 and Playbook 2.0

supraking May 31, 2012 at 10:49 am

Count me in!

Senex1 May 31, 2012 at 10:50 am

We've got trips to California wine country, camping in southern Utah (Bryce, Zion, etc.), house boat on Lake Powell and a great beer fest in northern Arizona planned. All great times to be rocking with Slacker.

Slacker me, please!

heavydem May 31, 2012 at 11:09 am

Slacker is great to have along on my devices. It will tour Western Canada with my this summer.

Cheers !!

joeye333 May 31, 2012 at 11:16 am

Free offer like this could lead to a forever more subscription to the premium.
Should would like to try it as I listen to the free now but am so tired of all the commercials.

mademan212 May 31, 2012 at 11:27 am

Pick meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

sjenkins May 31, 2012 at 11:28 am

i'm ready to rock!!

cbcastle May 31, 2012 at 11:29 am

This would be great for the family vacation at the lake side cabin we have booked in central BC, Canada.

Zidentia May 31, 2012 at 11:30 am

I really do not want this. I listen to Pandora on the road and Slacker just locks up. So, really, do not give it to me. Really

andreeee May 31, 2012 at 11:32 am

I'll be in Punta Cana. Count me in!

adrenaline_x May 31, 2012 at 11:32 am

I would love to have this and would use it alot at our cabin. Its located in the Whiteshell about 13 Kms straight north of caddy lake, MB.

We used to have to take the train and since MTS and Rogers got together to share their HSPA+ network we are able to get 1 bar on our phone and have been able to use a Wilson Electronic Cell Phone Booster to get a full signal inside the cabin.. The iphone 4 (that is now used as an ipod) still barely get signal.

Either way, raido stations are limited to the Kenora Radio Station and i would much rather beable to stream music with Slacker raido!

BB FTW

pingote May 31, 2012 at 11:35 am

Please count me in.
I´ll be in Mexico City, working in my office :(

CaptainGoodnight May 31, 2012 at 11:35 am
