Music has always been a part of conventional radio for a long time now until MTV invaded our homes and revolutionized the way music was presented to newer generations. And now, it is the turn of the internet to take over the place that television snatched away from conventional radio so long ago. Ironically, this is in the form of streaming radio and is generally offered for free over the internet.
While there are several genres that one can listen to as well a mix of the top music of the week, there is one genre that is a billion dollar industry and literally stands on its own apart from mainstream music, and is known as gospel music.
Musicians such as Ron Kenoly, Amy Grant, Jars of Clay, DC Talk and Petra revolutionized every sub-genre of Christian music forever apart from the traditional devotional music offering that has been a part of the music industry for sometime to come.
And with the advent of internet radio, people from all over the world can now listen to both the oldies as well as the latest music released by (most probably) CCM in the United States as well as in the United Kingdom.
And just like the best things in life come for free, one can listen to streaming radio for no cost at all.
