Briefly. I like the name. The format of the copy is confusing. The text sounds slightly off.
In a little more detail. On format, why is there a tagline in the middle of a dictionary definition? I can see using a dictionary definition format and I can see using a name and tagline format, but I can't see mixing the two. At first, I started reading it as a name and tagline and wondered why there was a pronunciation guide in the name. Then I realize it was a definition and was confused as to what "great, recommended audio for the urban commuter" had to do with the definition. I would drop the tagline altogether unless the design of the page somehow makes it obvious that the tagline and definition are completely separate entities.
On the text, please don't take this the wrong way, but it sounds somewhat non-native. I don't think I have ever heard anyone describe something as "great, recommended." In fact, if you Google "great recommended" in quotes, most of the results are clearly poorly written (like "what some great recommended psp games"). I feel the same way about "conveniently enjoys", which only has 247 results on Google when quoted, including this page.
A little restructuring of the text might make it read a little more smoothly as well. Perhaps, "Busy commuter who enjoys hand-picked audio recommendations from well-informed guides."
Finally, "audio recommendations" is vague. What kind of audio do you mean? Music? Poetry? Speeches? Anything and everything? If this is supposed to be clear, I would make it clear in the copy. If it's supposed to be vague, I guess that's OK too, as long as it's deliberate.
