A search in the App Store for old time radio will get you quite a few OTR apps. Way back in the 60's when I collected OTR on reel to reel tapes, One show that I really liked was Adventures By Morris. I was able to find the complete series along with the Lone Ranger X Minus 1 and more. So, it appears that there are several really good apps for OTR. Some let you stream the show or download it. Sense I was connected to WI-FI I just listened to the episodes. Somebody has spent a lot of time cleaning up many of the shows. Also they have included notes about the date the show was aired and how long the searies ran. Even a couple of years back when I searched the App Store for old time radio, there weren't that many choices like there is today.
