There is no doubt that for some of us, certain eras of music hold special memories, like for example listening to our parents’ records of 70s music, and that they still hold dear even if we have moved into the new millennium.
While it is undeniable that music has changed drastically since then, there are some things that have not yet changed, with the radio being one prime example. While certain elements about how music is presented through radio might have changed, it now has found a new way to reach out to a global audience through the form of the internet radio.
All you need now is a computer and a broadband connection. No matter where you are in the world, if you want to listen to music online that are offered by a slew of radio stations, the online version is readily available.
But it is not just the established radio stations that wish to reach out to a global audience with their quality programming but also the enthusiastic entrepreneurs who have a passion for music in a variety of forms be it pop, rock, or jazz music.
What this means is that radio continues to be free. And for people who never got the chance to listen to music from other cultures, this truly presents an opportunity to enjoy the music and lives of people who live thousands of miles away.
