Spinner was an online music and entertainment service.[1] An AOL Music property, it was acquired by AOL on June 1, 1999, along with Nullsoft for $400 million.[2][3][4] Based in San Francisco, California, the website was the first Internet music service and was the largest by 2001, while offering promotional features from high-profile recording artists.[5] In 2002, AOL combined Spinner with the former's Netscape portal to form Netscape Radio.[6] Spinner broadcast over 100 radio stations,[7] including Radio CMJ.[8]
In 2008, Spinner was revamped by AOL as a music website aimed at the "music aficionado".[9] The website offers exclusive interviews of recording artists,[10] streams of albums and live performances, and a free music download daily.[11]
Spinner, along with all AOL music sites, was abruptly shut down in April 2013.[12][13] The URLs to all former AOL music sites, including Spinner, were re-directed to aolradio.slacker.com starting in August 2013. Several AOL Music blogs, along with Comics Alliance, were sold to Townsquare Media in June 2013.[14]
