notes and numbers from Team IndieCan :-)

What’s new in Radio land?   What’s a radio you ask?  Funny but true;
terrestrial radio listeners are waning and internet radio and pod-cast
audiences are on the rise. More than one in five have listened to Internet
Radio in the past month. 2006 was the big turn around boasting a 50%
increase in people who listen on line, year over year.  People listen at
work – or during what we call work hours – in the last two years a 43%
increase has been recorded in people who log on to listen more than twice
a week, for more than 5 hours a week.  IndieCan finds that to be true. 
Although we have listeners from 126 countries in most time zones, we peak
in online listeners between 11:AM EST (8:AM PST) and 8:PM EST (5:PM PST). 
Radio web site visitors are highly loyal, with two-thirds of station web
site visitors visiting weekly, and nearly a quarter visiting daily.

That’s the news – now over to the entertainment desk:
