Yes, the rumor of an Apple deal was false, but a new agreement between Howard and Sirius/XM will bring the Stern Show show to the company’s iOS app for the first time.
Sirius subscribers can use the free SiriusXM Premium Online app with their subscriptions. It allows you to stream nearly all of the network’s channels. Last year there was a mild uproar from subscribers who discovered that several of the network’s key features, like the Stern Show, the NFL and MLB were excluded from the iPhone app. Details on the new arrangement with Stern are scare, but his contract is set to renew in January, so we expect to have his show on our iPhones by then.
In short, Howard is coming to your iPhone, but not as we initially heard.
