This is a topic I have been thinking about and even posted thoughts on this other boards. The main crux of this topic is that traditional terrestrial/OTA radio that also has live streaming on the web will shut down it's transmitters and towers and continue to be solely internet based.
I'll post some links to articles I've seen related to this topic (even though they are a few years old or older now) that pointed to some of the issues I posted about earlier, but then expands them. Granted not all of them have come to full fruition yet, but how soon before they do is an interesting observation.
