Enjoy great online radio at AccuRadio

The most-visible and most-likely fastest-growing Internet radio property of the past year or two has been Pandora, the recommendation-engine-driven radio station that evolved out of the Music Genome Project.

This year at the RAIN Las Vegas Summit, we’re pleased to announce today that Pandora CEO Joe Kennedy and CTO Tom Conrad will be presenting a keynote speech on the topic of “Unleashing Internet Radio from the PC.” It’s one of the first times ever that both executives have shared the stage at a major industry event.

Other features of the RAIN Summit will include the debut of RadioNext (a new major national research study that looks at the radio listening behavior of today’s online consumers), a revised and expended version of my “The Future of Radio“ keynote speech, a great presentation on the state of radio station website design from Edison Media Research’s Tom Webster, and an appearance by critically-acclaimed singer-songwriter Jude.

The 5th annual RAIN Las Vegas Summit will be held Monday, April 14th (concurrently with the NAB Show) at the Renaissance Las Vegas Hotel, sponsored in part by Ando Media. Advance registrations are $120; just click on the following PayPal link to buy a registration with any major credit card:

Alternatively, you can submit your name for one of 30 free registrations being provided by RAIN Summit sponsor Ando Media this week — just send a e-mail to summit@kurthanson.com.

Other speakers on the agenda for the RAIN Summit include royalty law expert David Oxenford, Emmis Radio NYC cluster manager Dan Halyburton, Ibiquity’s Don Kelly, and over 20 other top broadcasters, webcasters, and vendors. And it looks like we’ll have a standing-room-only crowd of attendees.

Great airfares to Vegas and hotel room rates seem to be still available. So we hope to see you there!

1. Looking forward to the Summit. I remember reading that there was going to be a free Seth Godin conf call this week and misplaced the info. Do you have it?

   Thanks,
