Radio Players
Description
At first radio was used by transmitting signals through frequencies which would later be transformed into sound. Later on people started to go digital where you would just tune into an already based radio station without having to scan for frequencies i.e. DAB Radio. Overtime the use of the internet has helped us greatly as we can just use the internet to access over thousands of radio stations around the world. Internet radio involves streaming media, presenting listeners with a continuous stream of audio that cannot be paused or replayed, much like traditional broadcast media. Internet radio services offer news, sports, talk, and various genres of music which can be anything varying on what the radio station specifically offers.
