An antiquated business model. A horde of upstart competitors. Can National Public Radio survive?" An interesting look at the antiquated US public radio in the midst of overall declines in terrestrial radio. I don't know if I agree that podcasts are a reason for the declining NPR audiences. (Despite living on the internet since 1993, I just don't care for podcasts, past or present.) In my opinion, the program content and presentation is stupefying dull. Your mileage may vary. :) _______________________________________________ Swlfest mailing list swlf...@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/swlfest To unsubscribe: Send an E-mail to swlfest-requ...@hard-core-dx.com?subject=unsubscribe, or visit the URL shown above.
