NetRadio offers digital downloads of music, DVD and VHS movies, video games, as well as music CDs and cassettes

The new NetRadio.com superstore will contain the same 250,000 plus CD and cassette music titles it always offered, but will now also feature DVD and VHS movies, and video games for all machine types. In addition, the new superstore will offer one of the largest selections of easy-to-access digital music downloads available on the Internet today with over 80,000 singles and full recordings. A new search engine on each page in the superstore will allow the user to search by product category, and purchase music, DVDs, computer games, and digital downloads using one shopping basket in a single transaction.

The new NetRadio.com superstore was designed and implemented by eSplice, a wholly owned subsidiary of Navarre Corporation.
