Internet radio is essentially a digital radio service transmitted over the Internet. It can be transmitted on CD-ROM or via a satellite dish. Broadcasting Internet radio over the Internet is often referred to as webcasting because it is not widely transmitted over traditional radio means. While Internet radio may resemble regular radio in some ways, it is primarily different in terms of available programming and signal handling. The format of Internet radio varies depending on the type of media used and the provider.
With online radio, there are no ads, commercials or other interruptions that occur while online radio broadcasts are transmitting. In contrast, with traditional radio, listeners have to pause and rewind a program they’re listening to if the program runs out of space or if the caller wants to talk differently. Online radio listeners are uninterrupted and can listen to their favorite shows whenever they want.
There are many websites where online radio stations can be streamed or downloaded from. They can be found using a simple search engine or found using specific search terms and phrases. Radio streaming can be very useful for people who want to listen to their favorite shows whenever they are free. Online radio stations often offer free streaming content and can be a great asset to those involved in work, education, or entertainment.
