Audacy Can't Find a Buyer for Radio.com Domain at Auction


Radio.com
Radio.com

Audacy's auction of radio.com through Godaddy fell short of the broadcaster's minimum bid of $2.5 million reports TheDesk.net. The auction was launched last December for the domain that originally belonged to CNET and then was purchased by CBS Radio. Audacy acquired the company in November, 2017. More than 1,000 individuals and organizations had expressed interest in the domain name but no one put forth the minimum bid.

Audacy is expected to continue operating the Radio.com domain for some of its streaming products, including its web-based app that offers online access to its AM and FM radio stations.
