Somehow, we successfully avoided featuring KPIG in the Digital Media newsletter, despite it being the first commercial radio station to broadcast on the Internet. Unfortunately, their free live stream is no more, although they do have a pre-recorded show that’s pretty awesome. Broadcasting live from the Santa Cruz area, KPIG serves up radio the way it’s meant to be done, with real people choosing cool music, instead of letting trends and statistics dictate what will be aired like so much of corporate radio today. I’m now torn between KPIG and RadioParadise.com for my online listening attention.
You can listen live by paying monthly or yearly for a subscription. They also have a podcast with different content than what’s available on the air.
