Bridge Ratings: “Internet radio listeners consume their primary media at almost equal levels with terrestrial radio consumption outweighing Internet radio by a few minutes per week.”
Many Internet Radio stations and shows start out with the desire to get noticed in the hope of a Broadcasting career. Some are starting to notice that the they have stopped moving toward the mountain — the mountain is moving to them.

Not true. Where did you get this information? The internet? Or from Pandora? Again, misinformation. I do not understand why people listen to internet radio when the quality is crap. Really crappy at 64/92/128 kb and at best AAC at 256 kb is still missing 80% of the data from the original Mpeg file. I hear the difference, why can’t anyone else. I also spin music, house/tribal/electro, and I refuse to play MP3s and AACs. Even at 2500 watts it is evident on my system that the linear audio sounds by far much better, clear. Our ears are not digital and sooner or later the digital must be turned into analog again at the speaker level. And speaker amps have a noise level also, just like FM, just like any system, microphones, everything. When I hear the ads for “pure HD quality” I laugh at these lies. It is highly compressed crappy audio and we listen to analog sooner or later. I like digital mixers, processors, exciters…but the audio begins as analog and ends as analog, one way or the other. Do we want analog after digital compression has removed 80% of the sound? It took years for musicians to return to tubes because they sound better and realized that solid state is good, but tubes warm it all up. I have a an Avalon analog microphone processor with 4 12AX7 tubes. Sounds so good. Analog FM sounds great if the station does not play MP3s. The internet sounds like crap and cell phone radio like garbage, compressed, on a speaker 25% the size of your smallest fingernail. Great quality from a cell phone? Right! Where are all the audio-files who want quality? Where are they? Internet HD quality? NOT THERE!!
