TuneIn Expands NFL Content Offering with Launch of Team Stations

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TuneIn, the world's largest audio network, has built upon its NFL content offering through the development of 20 NFL Team Stations, giving fans 24/7 access to live and on-demand content directly from their favorite team.

The build out of the team stations is the next phase in TuneIn's partnership with the NFL, announced in October 2015. The extension of the partnership to clubs allows for the development of unique team-produced audio content, available to fans around the world for free.

"In just over a year, our partnership with the NFL has exceeded our expectations with the value that live games and on-demand content have added to the TuneIn user experience," said Kevin Straley, TuneIn Chief Content Officer. "We're excited for the opportunity to deepen our relationship with the NFL down to the club level by launching team stations that bring fans even closer to their favorite team, no matter where they are."

With more than 300 million NFL fans worldwide, TuneIn's accessibility in more than 230 countries and territories provides a new opportunity for teams to amplify their content globally, and offers fans a closer connection to their team through free live and on-demand audio.

TuneIn's NFL content boasts a mobile-first design and carries a broad appeal across avid and passive fans on the go. In addition to the 20 team stations, free TuneIn users also have access to live content such as simulcasts of NFL Network programming, TuneIn's original weekday show "No Huddle" featuring Brian Webber and Kordell Stewart, and access to the best NFL-centric podcasts. Additionally, the recent launch of offline listening within the TuneIn app allows for users to download select team-produced content.
