eYada ceases live operations

This problem is somewhat ameliorated by the fact that the potential audience is far larger, but not by much, since the amount of competition is infinitely higher as well.
Thus, the only way an online station could even have a prayer of getting enough of an audience to make money is if they were to produce some truly brilliant programming, something so great that word-of-mouth alone would cause their servers to overload. eYada, instead, decided to offer generic talk radio. The only thing special about eYada was that it was online. And nothing guarantees a dotcom failure like offering the same damn thing that already exists all over the place, and pretending it's special because "we're doing it online!" Yeah, great. Have fun burning your cash.
