ABSTRACT

According to Peggy Miles, president of on-line broadcasting specialist Intervox Communications, in mid-1999 there are in excess of 2000 radio stations broadcasting full-time programming on the Internet. There are also, she says, ‘well over 100 television stations doing much the same thing’ and many more broadcasting part-time segments, usually news or current affairs. Miles also admits that the number of new web-streamed networks entering this arena means it is now almost impossible to provide up-to-the-minute figures.
