Widget Watch: HD Radio

RadioSherpa has released an Apple Dashboard widget that streams radio stations from Boston, New York and San Francisco (they promise more are on the way), including several HD2 stations. It's pretty cool, and even displays the name of the current song in real-time before you load the stream.

Note that you've got to install the VLC web browser plug-in to get this to work, so keep that in mind.

This seems to be a good way to get HD Radio programming to more people.

Seems like a timely release in light of the rumors for MacWorld and the introduction of being able to timestamp and buy a song you hear on HD radio.
