For $2.5 Million You Can Own Radio.com.

AUDACY retired the RADIO.COM platform on MARCH 30, 2021 when it abandoned the former ENTERCOM brand with a redirect to AUDACY.COM. It has now put the RADIO.COM domain up for auction with a minimum bid of $2.5 million through GODADDY.COM.

The auction ends MARCH 28th, 2023 at 9a (PST).

Several similarly named domains have not fetched nearly that kind of money:

RADIO.CLOUD $25,000

RADIO.CO $15,000

RADIO.IM $2,500

Here is a brief history of AUDACY and the RADIO.COM domains, according to WIKIPEDIA: “The AUDACY platform functions as a music recommender system and is the national umbrella brand for the company’s radio network aggregating its over 235 local radio stations across the UNITED STATES. In addition, the service includes thousands of podcasts, created for the platform, hosted elsewhere, or station programming on demand. It was originally created by CBS RADIO and was acquired by the former ENTERCOM as part of the company's takeover of CBS RADIO.

“The RADIO.COM domain was formerly owned by CNET NETWORKS, which purchased it and TV.COM from the nonprofit INTERNET MULTICASTING SERVICE for $30,000 in 1996.[2] CNET, and in turn the RADIO.COM domain, was acquired by CBS CORPORATION (the parent company of CBS RADIO at the time) in 2008.[3]

“RADIO.COM launched on JULY 16, 2010 under CBS RADIO. It was originally launched as a central website to stream all of CBS's then 130 radio stations.”
