Advertising on B&O Radio

[YannChris]

Hello,

When lauching B&O Radio, I allways get a commercial before the music turns-on.

Rather weird to have an ad for hard-discount supermarket when booting the (costly) system.

By chance it’s not long, but a part of B&o’s magic fades with this “feature”.

Is it the same for you?

Kind regards,

Yann.

Not what I have noticed.

Is it on all stations or only on

some?

Are you sure you use B&O Radio and not (still) TuneIn?

Hi MM,

I use B&O Radio.

The same station comes without advertisement on Tune-in.

I assume the ads are embedded in the radio stream by the radio station.  For one station, I mostly get ads about the audicy app which is the preferred app for the station.  For the local classical music station, there’s always an ad for a bank that is major sponsor.  It’s also doesn’t happen with all stations.

Interesting about the Tune-in app.  I almost always get ads when I use GVA which usually uses Tune-in.  For example, I’ll get an ad sometimes before I play Radio Paradise on Tune-in, but never B&O Radio.  I would say it definitely varies by station and possibly location.
