Transistor kills the radio star?

A rádio on line tem de procurar conteúdos alternativos

A propósito da decisão da rádio on line Woxy passar a ser paga, a Radio and Internet Newsletter especula sobre os caminhos que a rádio on line terá de tomar. Com esta conclusão: só com conteúdos alternativos, diferentes, novos é que a rádio on line poderá sobreviver (entendendo aqui rádio on line como aquela que vive independente da emissão hertziana): «Is what you're doing something that could only work  in an online environment and something that takes advantage of the medium? If so, go for it. If not, you may belong in the analog world." »

Mais do mesmo: «"Think about it: Could Videobomb, Pandora, Last.FM, Digg, Slashdot, MySpace and eBay exist offline? Of course they couldn't! Could WOXY exist offline? Um... duh! Of course it can: It's called 'radio,' and it's been with us for around 100 years now. Sure, being online offers a few minor perks for a station like that, but overall, it ain't doing something that couldn't be done with older technology and, I might add, more conveniently. Until we've got ubiquitous Wi-Fi, taking Internet radio on the go is kind of tough. And even if we did have ubiquitous Wi-Fi, the quality of a good connection is still going to be less than the quality of a bad FM radio. It's just the way things work»
