One of the things I love about radio—and, for my money, being able to tune in to radio stations from all over the world is one of the greatest things about the ’net—is that you can listen for hours, while doing this and that, as I was last night (WFMU-FM, The Push Bin with Lou), and not hear a single track, or even a single artist, that you’ve ever heard before, knowing all the while that whatever is playing means enough to at least one person (the DJ, that is) that, at that moment, it’s being shared, eagerly, with whoever happens to be listening.
