AOL and XM have announced a strategic deal to swap content, as well as offer premium XM content to AOL users.
Web surfers will be able to access 20 XM channels on AOL’s radio section, along with its current roster of about 130 stations, for free. A new version of AOL’s “premium” radio service will have 70 XM channels and be available for a monthly fee, which has not been set, XM spokesman David Butler said.
AOL subscribers will automatically receive the enhanced service.
(Thanks, Michael!)
