One of the most famous internet radio services belongs to AOL radio, which is powered by CBS Radio, and their latest addition is a new release specifically for the BlackBerry Bold. Sadly it seems like they forgot to include other BlackBerry devices, but maybe that will happen in the near future.

Anyhow, owners of a BlackBerry Bold can now take advantage of the AOL Radio, which includes over 250 stations and more than 150 CBS local + HD stations. On top of all the stations, you can also create bookmarks, view the recently played stations, skip songs, and lastly, find the CBS radio stations in your area via GPS.

More information at the AOL Radio Blog.
