Lately there has been a bunch of musicians who have risen to rapid fame via the Internet. Are they self-styled artists, or a PR-created crock?
During a trip to the US four years ago, I rented a car fitted with an XM satellite radio which gave me well over 100 radio stations, each carrying a continuous stream of crystal-clear talk radio or music in a surprising array of genres.
