About RAIN News

RAIN News lives at the nexus of traditional radio and new media.

Informative, insightful, influential, entertaining — RAIN News is the preeminent source of information and commentary about the future of radio and the emergence of streaming audio. RAIN was started in 1999 by Kurt Hanson, founder of AccuRadio, a pioneering Internet radio platform. In the 14 years since its beginning, RAIN has kept a forward-looking view, both documenting and predicting the future of radio and the evolution of listening.

A core component of RAIN News is the RAIN Daily Digest newsletter, a curated package of knowledge points and original analysis. The daily newsletter is a crucial touchstone for thousands of readers who have relied on its progressive daily drumbeat for over a decade of change in the radio and digital music industries.
