Inravio is an acronym for internet, radio and television. We are playing all the coolest new music, from 30 Seconds to Mars to Paramore and beyond; all your fav's! The world of music has been changing for the last 35 years, but not as much as now with the world wide use of the internet. We noticed that CD's and DVD's have been going away and music downloads have become the norm, the writing has been on the wall so to speak. Record companies and radio stations alike have had a very loud wake-up call. The normal course of business now has been turned upside down. Inravio brings it back home.
Bands can now tour and make a living with playing their music without a "record deal" or a manger taking a cut off the top. With the use of our station and online sites such as Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, the world is your forum to sell out your shows and sell your merchandise.
700 million people a day listen to Internet Radio, more than all the Fm stations in the USA for 1 week.
Not bad right? So contact us and start livin' the dream.
The Future of Radio is now.
How the way the Music industry distributes its music has already changed:
The day of the LP, reel to reel, the 8 track, the cassette, the CD, and yes even the DVD are over.
It’s the era of the Digital Delivery System. With that, and the advent of places like Myspace, Facebook and Twitter that are communities that bring people and music together the bands and artists have other avenues other than Record companies, notice that they still call them “record” companies, to distribute music to the people. So not only can they distribute their music to the people, but they can do it world wide. Before, record and then CD stores, which are also a thing of the past, sold music they had maybe 100,000 titles for people to choose from. Today the listener has well over 1 million titles they can purchase and download.
So where does Internet Radio fit into this do you ask?
Well with the “record companies” and terrestrial radio still doing business as usual, which by the way is the only way they can, it opens the door for web radio. Web Radio broadcasts to the whole world, 6.8 billion people, which is where music is being sold now. Today artists don’t need a record company to take a percentage of their profits and tell them how to write their music.
So does the advertising on Internet Radio pay off?
Of course it does! Just as record labels advertise bands, gigs and album releases on terrestrial radio since FM started, so should a band who is looking to promote themselves. When they play the local club or on a United States Tour, telling the world about it is going to get fans in the seats. Getting your name and your music heard is what is going to sell downloads, unless of course you don’t want to.
