RadioVeRVe

[1] It addressed the common problem that independent artistes face all over the world – mainstream radio doesn't play their music, so reach is limited.

The RadioVeRVe team decided to pool their talents together and create a one-of-its-kind venture, India's first Internet radio station dedicated wholly to independent Indian music.

The station, which ran in non-commercial mode, was run by Gaurav Vaz, a well known musician in Bangalore and Shreyas Srinivasan, an active FOSS developer, with financial support from employers and well wishers, and operational and content (RJ) inputs from friends and volunteers.

Founded by Kaustubh Srikanth, the station actually started as an experiment called "Infinity Radio" in late 2005, with a broadcast of about two hours of content every weekday night, RJ'd live over the net.

The station's channels could be listened to both in the browser (via the RadioVeRVe website) as well as through traditional streaming using internet radio client applications and devices.
