PROVIDING EMERGENCY ALERTS TO CONNECTED RADIO RECEIVERS
An audio delivery system (100) can include an alert processor (108) configured to parse alert content. The alert processor can receive first data representing the alert content. The alert processor can convert the alert content to an alert message that includes alert text and parameters. A connected radio server (120), coupled to the alert processor via internet protocol, can insert the alert content into a data stream. The connected radio server can receive second data representing the alert message from the alert processor via internet protocol. The connected radio server can receive instructions from the alert processor via internet protocol to incorporate the alert message into the data stream. The data stream can include an audio stream and the alert message. The connected radio server can provide the data stream to a connected radio receiver (102) via internet protocol.
User-requested message transmission to devices near a second device
An electronic device of the invention is configured to allow a user of a first device to request transmission of a message, obtain a location of a second device, and transmit the message to devices within a certain range of the second device. The first device may be carried by a person who wants to retrieve a missing person, animal, or object. The second device may be carried by the missing person or missing animal or attached to or incorporated into the missing object. The message may be transmitted by the first device, by the second device, and/or by an Internet server, for example.

METHOD, APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR MULTI-BAND ANALOG RADIO SIGNAL PROCESSING FOR TERMINATION TO A NETWORK-CONNECTED DEVICE
Methods, apparatuses and system for multiband radio signal processing for providing radio signals to a network connected device include receiving multiband radio signals, tuning the multiband radio signal to a radio frequency band based on a received request from a network-connected device for the radio frequency band, and communicating data associated with the requested radio frequency band to the requesting network-connected device over the network using an application programming interface. At the network-connected device, the data associated with the requested radio frequency band can be received and presented on an output device of the network-connected device using an installed application.

Internet radio and broadcast via crowdsourcing apparatus and system
Data streams are generally selected according to user preferences and transmitted to the user in general alignment with expressed preferences of the user. Such data streams may be music, including music videos. Users may indicate their general or specific preferences with regards to song, artists, or albums. Any other aspects or factors that might affect the user's preferences can be taken into account. A playlist is created that combines all of these factors. The playlist then serves as the basis for feeding the data streams to the user. Each user is able to express his or her own preferences and receive music corresponding to those preferences on an on-going basis.
