Methods and systems for selecting internet radio program break content using mobile device location

An Internet radio source, comprising:

• at least one communication interface;
• and
• a processor communicatively coupled with the communication interface, wherein the processor is configured to stream to a mobile device via the interface an Internet radio program, receive from the mobile device via the interface a report including a location of the mobile device, detect electronically a start marker in the Internet radio program indicating a start of a program break, identify an explicit indicator of duration of the program break using the start marker, select a plurality of program break content candidates using the reported location and the explicitly indicated duration of the program break, stream to the mobile device the program break content candidates during the program break and resume streaming to the mobile device of the Internet radio program after the program break.
