DiS Radio Returns! Q1 2011 Report by Sean Adams & Mike Diver

After an absence of several years, the "award-winning" DiS Radio is back!

In case you missed the mention on the boards this weekend and don't subscribe to our Mixcloud then you might have missed the return of DiS Radio. Some of you may remember the show from a few years back, before various 'official' music industry bodies introduced a royalty rate which prohibited us from continuing doing the podcast, without bankrupting ourselves.

Last week, Sean Adams (that's me) and former DiS editor, and now BBC Reviews editor, Mike Diver, sat down and recorded a first quarter report, summing up our favourite releases and the highlights of the year so far. And via the magic of Mixcloud, you can stream the "radio" show here:

DiScuss: Is it a major issue for you that this is streaming and not downloable like wot it used to be? Any thoughts? Too much talking? Not enough music? Too long? Better left dead and buried? More of this sort of thing?
