New partnership brings TuneIn’s extensive collection of live sports, news, music, podcasts and radio to the unified, vehicle-native iM Media Hub, enabling seamless content discovery and personalized recommendations. 

Montreal, August 11, 2026 — Stingray (TSX: RAY), the world’s leading connected streaming media company, today announced a new partnership with iM Media Labs to bring TuneIn to the iM Media Hub, a unified, vehicle-native media platform that integrates radio, streaming, podcasts and more for connected vehicles. The integration enables drivers to access TuneIn’s live sports, news, music, podcasts and radio through a native, OEM-branded in-vehicle experience, without requiring phone projection. 

“Automotive is a key growth area for TuneIn, and this partnership is another step in making our content available wherever drivers choose to listen,” said Rich Stern, CEO of TuneIn. “iM Media Labs shares our vision for delivering exceptional in-vehicle audio experiences, and together we’re making it easier for listeners to discover and enjoy live audio content on the road.” 

The iM Media Hub brings together music, radio, podcasts, news, sports, audiobooks, video and other entertainment from multiple providers in one personalized experience. The platform also offers AI-powered recommendations that help listeners discover new stations, shows and podcasts. Existing TuneIn listeners can access their “Favorites” and “Recently Played” content directly through the vehicle, making it easy to pick up where they left off as they move between devices. 

“Media Hub is built to give drivers one intuitive place to access the entertainment they enjoy most,” said John Jasper, Founder, President and COO of iM Media Labs. “Adding TuneIn significantly expands that choice, bringing more than 100,000 radio stations, live sports, news, music and podcasts into a consistent experience designed around each automaker’s brand.” 

As part of the agreement, eligible new users accessing TuneIn through the iM Media Hub will receive a free trial of TuneIn Premium, which includes commercial-free news and music channels, fewer ads across more than 100,000 radio stations, unlimited access to more than 100,000 audiobooks, and live sports coverage. 

TuneIn, Stingray’s streaming audio platform, is the world’s largest platform for live radio with more than 75 million monthly active users across 122 countries. The partnership builds on TuneIn’s continued expansion in the automotive sector, following partnerships with Nissan and BYD Auto in the past year.
