The funny thing is, since the advent of streaming I no longer listen to the radio. I listen to new music, but little pop music, and I have never heard a single track from Swift, Bieber, Grande or Sheeran. Coldplay is the only act I like on that list, and the streaming services are pretty good at only playing what I like.

If they were pre-streaming artists I probably would have heard a lot of their catalog because radio played it over and over. Unfortunately you just can’t get away from the Christmas music.

Sure, but I'm sure you've heard of Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber.
Traditional radio mostly sucks, but Soma.fm and KEXP are both great for discovering new music.
