The radio shows on these stations are volunteer produced and offer a diverse look at news and music (both local and global). Commercial radio may be suffering, but I'm enjoying my radio. :) The radio format also made an easy transition to the net, which will keep it alive for some time. All three of our college stations also stream online: UMFM: http://www.umfm.com/ CKUW: http://ckuw.ca/ KICKFM: http://www.kick.fm/ peace.

I still listen to the radio several times a week. Where else can I get my fix of sports talk and news? Until there's a reliable way to get live podcasts in the car (oh wait...isn't that what radio is?) I think radio will live on. I’m going to have to disagree with the whole “radio is dead” thing.
