Abstract
A processor implemented method of providing personalized integrated audio is provided comprising a computer creating an audio stream to transmit to an audio play device and inserting a music from a source into the audio stream. The computer interrupts the insertion of the music and inserts a first audio message into the audio stream, wherein the first audio message is selected by the computer from subscribed information services based on at least one of a time and a place of the audio play device. The computer also inserts a second audio message into the audio stream, wherein the second message comprises information converted from a text format of a message addressed to a communication system of the audio play device to an audio format. After the completion of one of the first audio message and the second audio message, the computer resumes insertion of the music into the audio stream.
