[QUOTE="Bailey, post: 930349, member: 7093"] I've been thinking the same thing lately but not just as an OSA issue but the wider interest in internet radio. I used to co-own and DJ on another radio station a station, which is still going, even though they have a full schedule of DJs every week, they rarely peak above 20 listeners and that’s a station that plays a variety of genres, not just oldskool. There are 2 other popular oldskool sites when you search “oldskool radio”, both have a well stocked schedule of DJ’s and when you look at their listener count on internetradio.com, it’s not so much different to OSA’s? Plus, all these other sites are also more visually appealing with interactive chat and they all promote via social media, yet OSA is still holding its own. However, it is sad to see OSA quiet on the live DJ front and I too would love to play more, but like you say Taff, family commitments and life in general make it hard to find time. It does makes you wonder though, with a fuller schedule and a bit of promoting, what the listener figures could be like then? I have been on here on event days and it can be huge! Even as it is now though, its no different to other stations regarding listener figures, So, I wouldn’t say it’s the end of OSA exactly but I do wonder if internet radio in general is on the decline?
