This week, news has become apparent that radio stations could possibly be using youtube playlists with the most hits to play whilst on air. This news is quite shocking as many believe radio presenters should play tunes that they think people will want to listen to. But this also spells bad times for the young and new music industry. The reasons for this are that young and new artists will not be able to recieve the airplay they deserve as they're unheard of as of yet therefore their music will not recieve many hits on Youtube resulting in no air play and therefore resulting in the demise of the young and new music industry, in the worst case scenario. 

You wouldn't expect huge radio stations such as BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 and Xfm to be playing their music of Youtube playlist hits, would you? And we at RIFFED sincerley hope this news is not true for the welfare and the future of the music industry.
