Internet Radio Listeners Can Be So FICKLE

When it comes to Internet radio the hardest thing a radio station owner can do is try and attract listeners to their stream.

I found in the past when I was streaming that most listeners only tended to tune in for 1 maybe 2 songs.

I would play 2 Classic 80s songs together and then I'd lose a few listeners

If those listeners heard those two songs played together on mainstream 80s radio those people would think the DJ was amazing.

There is no DJ on most mainstream radio stations most of its Voice tracked, Computerised & Networked from remote Studios.

Sadly it seems despite Internetradio station owners promoting their stations people only want to hear what they want to HEAR.

Internet radio is losing out big style to Streaming services such as Spotify

Spotify wants to KILL Internet Radio as we know it!

Yes its nice when you do get listeners sticking around but you have to do a lot of hard work to keep those listeners.

Its always been the LOVE OF MUSIC (for me) Its never been about the amount of listeners.

I find from my years of streaming experience that InternetRadio listeners Can Be So FICKLE!

If you're going to tune into a radio stream at least stay tuned in for more than 1 song.
