Online radio offers the widest choice of music genre to the largest listening audience; Amsterdam trance, only Christmas, gospel, oldies and rock are just a few examples of the music genres available to listeners online. If anything the internet has changed the way in which we entertain ourselves and radio is a medium which has been in use on the internet since the earliest days, and has proven to be hugely popular in spreading the word around the world.
A fan of Zydeco music living in Kazakhstan can listen to a station streaming out of New Orleans in the United States, as too can a jazz lover living in Japan listen to a streaming radio station live out of London, and it all started without much fanfare with a live broadcast out of Seattle a mere sixteen years ago. The rest is history as they say and now there are literally hundreds of thousands of stations operating; large commercial operations play side by side with some guy offering a diet of trance from an apartment somewhere - anywhere - in the world.
The first band to play live over the internet which was well known was the Rolling Stones; the internet radio revolution has had a few hiccups along the way, but it is now firmly established thanks in no small part to the proliferation of fast internet connections and increased bandwidth, even in out of the way places. Such is the power of internet radio that a trend for radio stations to close down their radio transmissions over the air and concentrate on internet radio is gathering speed.
