From case studies to retrospectives to re-imagining radio via new technologies, panelists contribute pieces to the larger puzzle: what is core to radio listening? What would the ideal radio station sound like, and how is success determined at the audience and market level? Discussions transition from traditional elements that historically define listening to recent considerations (i.e., increased fragmentation, mobility, rapid technological change, shifts in audience composition and reach) encompassing radio art, innovative practice and emerging communities.
