Bob Edwards, the radio host whose silky voice meant morning to millions of listeners across the country, was scheduled to begin broadcasting again this morning from a Washington, D.C., studio located an eighth of a mile from his former employer, National Public Radio.
One competitive advantage satellite radio has over conventional radio is that, because it charges listeners a fee, much like cable television, under federal regulations it is subject to looser rules than stations that are free.
Satellite radio's critics point out that its programming is calibrated to appeal to specific national audiences, and that it strays from the public service responsibility of conventional radio, to provide local news and a connection between people and their communities.

With more and more computer users at work and at home, on the internet, tuning in to web radio, terrestrial radio stations continue to see audience numbers decrease because audience numbers are comprised within their signal radius.
