In a time where music piracy is rampant, a concept like free music online is a radical way of combatting piracy.Terrestrial radio stations have always broadcast for free (although some have tried to bring about a paid service) and this is what made them extremely popular.The same concept being applied online can only lead to one thing – success.

In short, the world is your oyster in terms of whatever music you desire.The power of internet radio has come to light even more in recent years due to the advent of mobile internet technology.
