RADIO IS ONLY ABOUT COMMERCIALS

It’s true that commercial radio, well, lives up to its name. Commercial radio stations make their money off of deals with advertising companies, so yes, the ad spots tend to be laid on a little thick. However, commercial stations aren’t all that’s out there.

There are thousands of non-commercial stations broadcasting across the United States. These non-commercial stations are legally obligated to forego running advertisements, which means they have more time (and more flexibility) for the actual music. Because of this, non-commercial radio is indisputably the starting point for new acts.
