A good use for the web. .. ultra niche appeal.

From experience, I do not think one could find a sample of listeners to
that music even with 60,000 interviews in the LA market... so none of
those eclectic, esoteric or droning formats could be sustained by the
commercial radio model.

On the other hand, I fail to see the alternate business model for this
one. Per their stats, all 14 channels or stations have less listenership
than a mid-tier FM in Traverse City Michigan.


They only have 3 employees. You have to add the Shoutcast stats to the
web site stats to get a closer idea of how many people are listening.

I send them about $100 a year. They have about 20,000 listeners.
