This week we are revealing finalists in the 7th Annual RAIN Internet Radio Awards. Today we are pleased to announce the advancing finalists in the “Best Single Stream Webcaster” category.
The single winners of all six categories will be revealed and honored at RAIN Summit Nashville on September 20, as the closing session of the day-long conference.
This category celebrates the best pureplay webcaster with a single stream of radio content. It is one of the most popular categories each year, and therefore one of the most competitive, receiving many self-nominated entries. The judging panel, comprised of industry experts unaffiliated with the competing services, may evaluate all aspects of the singe-stream pureplay experience, including programming, personality, stream reliability, and distinctiveness.
