"The speed, guaranteed uptime and quality of Liquid Compass's stream were must-haves for us," said Chad Nykamp, VP, Internet Operations, Salem Web Network. "We plan to leverage those capabilities along with their next-generation Flash media player to enhance the overall streaming experience for our listeners as we roll out to each of our markets over the next month."

Additionally, listeners have the ability to sort through videos, last played songs, search through other stations or side channels within a network and also send the stream to a mobile device.
