Commercial (& local) radios have incredibly limited playlists and will never take a walk on the wild side for fear of losing listeners. Isn't this kind of fuddy duddy attitudes that spawned pirate radios in the 1960s?? Its the reason why the traditional radio stations are losing their listeners slowly but surely to the new medium of podcasts & net radio. Just think....10 years ago the internet was slow and rubbish, hardly anyone had access...now internet is fast, loads of people have it in their homes, libraries, and workplaces, and more recently mobile phones.....think 10 years in the future? Internet in car stereos? Streaming audio? Access to music anywhere through Wireless networks? This progression in technology I'm pretty sure will destroy traditional AM/FM stations who fail to move with the times. People are frustrated with radio and TV , why do you think there are hundreds and thousands of ordinary people making their own shows!
