Why B101's Stream Made The PPM
Written Aug. 14, 2008 by Sean Ross in Internet Radio with 0 Comments
It's not surprising that WBEB (B101) Philadelphia was the first station Webstream to show up in its own market's PPM (with an 0.5 weekly cume rating). In a world where many stations are still struggling to pull their streaming experience together, B101 is both relatively seamless (with mostly songs where the spots would be) and -- to my non-engineer's ear -- actually sounds good online. By contrast, I've heard another Philadelphia station where the Web-only stopsets don't line up with what's on the air, so that the music is interrupted, and not even by spots, but by PSAs.
