There is no economic benefit for a "local" station to stream. Maybe for bragging rights at the Radio Station National Convention? Our station is principally supported by local business which directly aim for our Villagers' spending dollars, not those in TN, or WI, or NY, or where-ever else. So I imagine we will never see WVLG stream.
A few "local" stations around the US have awakened to the economic reality of streaming and now charge $10 - $20 per month to subscribe to their streaming service.
For what the play list is degenerating to and given the quality of half the announcers, IMHO, for steady listening it is not worth even $10/mo. compared to what is available in most areas of the Country.
