65807 Jamie Wiley6055102no i don't think it hurts the music industry at all. What is the difference if we listen to radio stations in the car, home radio or internet? it's all the same to me. Here i can listen and if want a certin song i can jot it down and uy the cd later.I currently have problems with getting radio stations in on my radio in the basement of my house where i work. I turn on my computer and i can get a perfect connection with my cable modem to any radio station that i want. I really enjoy listening to the radio online.all of them!

65816 Othiamba Moore1914101I feel Internet Radio helps the music industry, it helps otherwise lesser known artists get out there, and i dont think it is fair that larger corporations are allowed to continue business as usual online. This is extremely unfair and slanted towards Large Business's and is not a good idea for the little guys.Coast To Coast WURD 900AM
65817 lisa sills3804001helps the industry cause it encourages u to buy the CD and artists you hear on the internet radio.Sincity Radio

65821 Mrs. Kim Simmons6000402Helps, it gives more power and profits to the musicians rather than companies.Nova-M Radio, C-Span Radio, Air America and 9 FM Radio.
65822 Jon Schalk01Hell no, it improved the music industry. When i hear a couple of nice songs on the internet, i usually buy the whole album.
65823 Anonymous6091402
65824 Amanda Wietecha4603701It definitely helps! Had I not connected to the few internet radio broadcasts that I have over the past years, there are a number of CDs I own right now that I wouldn't even have known EXISTED. Not only the music industry, but more specific broadcasts like anime music have opened me to some new anime that I've bought the DVDs of.Stop considering internet radio a copyright infringement. It's FREE ADVERTISING FOR YOUR MUSIC AND MOVIES. These companies never had to independent broadcasters a cent to play their music, or discuss their music likes.Keiichi.net Radio!

65832 Chester M. Olester6062202
65833 Anonymous4411602Greatly helps. TV and radio stations only play songs that they 1) are forced to play by record labels, 2) are familiar with, and 3) feel to be popular, and by this rule, they overplay one song for a month. Internet radio helps listeners discover bands and artists across the world, not just in the US. After discovering a new band on internet radio, I'm able to find out more information about them then I ever would from MTV or a local big name FM station.The fact that the CRB has to constantly raise royalties shows that they are trying to create a monopoly. The music business is not failing, just catching up to the technological era.Digitally Imported, Keiichiradio.net, LastFM.com
65834 Anonymous7825001As a night club DJ, I have to say that it most definitely helps. i get to hear newer material that allows me to make proper cd buying decisions.Real Industrial Radio Keiichi
65835 Carolyn Carpenter6041601Intetrnet radio play-time is the best advertisement any musical artist could hope to utilize!Among other anonymous stations I regularly find and play randomly, my favorite local stations that are available for play on the internet are Chicago's nineFM and Olivet Nazarene University's shine.fm.

65842 Anonymous6001402No, I don't feel this hurts the music industry. I work in a basement and the only way I can get radio stations is through the internet. Otherwise, I would be listening to the same cd's over and over. This also lets me hear what's going on in the outside world:) Breaking news, the weather, etc.9 FM - 92.5 FM US99 - 99.5 FM The Mix - 101.9 FM

65848 Peter Brehm94706Radio Déliro brought a refreshing, varied program of music that I loved. New music did inspire purchase of artists I never knew before. It is loss for music new, old and to be.
65849 alex gayga01it helps the music industry.Listeners and perspective buyers get to preview the songs.versus paying for Syrius ,etc,for someothing that always has been from,public Radio,which I will never pay for!!!
