The radio-like look represents and preserves the analog experience and provides a comfortable, familiar setting for both novice users and savvy web surfers.

As of January 2000, ChoiceRadio.com had amassed a listenership of over 370,000 unique users per month, with an average of over 700 concurrent users at any given moment.
Choiceradio.com was developed using Allaire Cold Fusion with a SQL Server back end and uses Microsoft's Windows Media Player. It was one of the first internet broadcasters to beta test Media Player and as a result is prominently featured on the MSN Radio Guide and is included in all 17 localized versions of MSN worldwide.
