The Resurrection of Indie Radio
We all know that Clear Channel and other Big Media conglomerates have taken advantage of government deregulation and turned commercial radio into a wasteland of mediocrity. But did you know that the corporate beasts are also secretly supporting a new generation of independent, free-form stations?
Check out "The Resurrection of Indie Radio" from the March 2005 issue of Wired magazine for a great overview of modern music media. In it, you'll get the nitty-gritty on "NeoRadio," the growth of high-definition radio and why the popularity of the iPod is directly related to the crappiness of radio.
