News is the killer app for free radio.

That's true. And what many people don't appreciate is the local aspect
of radio. Those that do appreciate it are the ones trying to move
forward to improve terrestrial radio to make it relevant. One station
that can offer a choice of different content has a big advantage over
its competition.

Ironically, one thing the web does really well is to deliver news, while
one thing it does relatively poorly is to stream music.
