INTERNET RADIO: Is Internet Radio The New Black?

With the most recent Blogads survey exposing the current state of podcasting as more hype than reality, maybe it's time for folks to turn their attention to old fashion internet radio. The latest Arbitron report puts the online radio audience at over 5 million listeners a week. Yahoo's LAUNCHcast, AOLRadio Network, and MSN Radio garner the lion's share of listeners, but little-engine-that-could 365Live.com is making the internet radio scene in a big way. Personally, I don't know why anybody would listen to anything other than KCRW, but check out the 365Live site and search their network of thousands of free radio stations. It's pretty damn cool.

With so many people listening to radio over the internet makes you wonder why the DNC is thinking podcasting small instead of internet radio big.
