WTMD-FM Townsend University Public Radio

I have been listening to this station via the Public Radio app on my iPhone for a few months.  I just found out that they have released a dedicated app for their station and it is great.

You can listen to the two streams they have, set the app to act as an alarm clock to wake you in the morning and there is a buy button that will take you to the iTunes store to buy whatever you are listening to.  It also has a quick link to a quicktime web stream of each broadcast so you can use safari to listen to the station.  "So what?" you say...  well, safari is one of the few apps that can have a background thread so when you launch the web stream you can leave the app and go launch another app, as long as the second app doesn't use safari.
