Default Why listen to shortwave when you can use the internet to listen

Shortwave is DEAD. Use your computer to listen to a vast arrray of
radio broadcasts from anywhere in the world. No radio, no antenna, no
static. Shortwave broadcasting is old tech, dying fast.


Birdwatching is dead, why not just look at pictures of birds online.

Oh yeah... a person's hobby
(birdwatching, shortwave, coin collecting etc.)
is fun and exciting to him/her. Not dead
at all, full of life, satisfaction and the thrill of discovery.

What's dead is your mind, and your personality if you have to get
attention/satisfaction by trolling a newsgroup.
