Who Needs Radio?

Posted by michael on from the all-we-hear-is-radio-ga-ga dept.

DragonMagic writes "MSNBC asks what many /.ers have been asking: Who needs the radio anymore? Rather, it goes on to really ask, who needs the RIAA anymore? With online music distribution sources, television, and the internet itself, how much longer will it be before the radio, and the RIAA, will be an obsolete means to promote artists?"

    i agree, i couldn't live (well, i suppose i could if i had to) without "morning edition" and "all things considered". i even donated money during this pledge drive because i like their quality programming, as opposed to "donating" money to RIAA for their crappy music, by purchasing CDs.

    i think one should ask "who really needs MSNBC, when we have NPR?"
