Att de tar med podcasting i det hela handlar väl om buzz. Men vadårå. Det är ju riktigt coolt ändå. KYOURADIO ska sända innehåll som deras lyssnare sänder till dem, i form av podcastsändningar eller något annat.

KYOURADIO is the first radio station in the world to get all of its programming from podcasts. Everyday we'll feature new, innovative and cutting edge programs produced by people like you. Your original thoughts and sounds will be broadcast in San Francisco on the revolutionary 1550 KYCY-AM and streamed worldwide at KYOURADIO.com.

Det fina med det är att de egentligen bara förmedlar innehållet, programmakarna behåller allt själva och kan därmed fortfarande podcasta sitt program eller sälja det någon annan stans till och med.

Hollander said Infinity does not plan to assert ownership claims on content submitted by podcasters, who will remain free to publish their podcasts on the internet -- or anywhere else they choose.

"They can give it to us and give it to somebody else, because we're not taking anything away from them," Hollander said. "We're just helping them reach a broader audience with our bandwidth."

Det känns som SR behöver ändra formerna för Frispel.
