Some claim that the Internet radio service has no legal purpose because it does not promote illegal activity. However, Nederland FM encourages people to express their opinions and express themselves. Radio is a communication tool that allows people to express themselves. It also allows you to talk about different public issues and get different public opinion.

On the other hand, some say that there is no harm in the use of Internet technology for communication purposes. Even if it may seem that there is no difference in promoting a product over the Internet as opposed to an airwaves, radio stations still have a commercial interest in the Internet. Many radio stations have their own websites that promotes the latest news and feature stories. It is also true that there is profit motive in the Internet radio industry. Many companies offer money to host Internet radio stations that will attract listeners.

Some argue that there is nothing wrong in giving the Internet an opportunity to serve as a channel for the common public. They argue that even in the traditional radio business, big businesses have a part in advertising. The Local Public Radio Service, however, would like to see more focus given to the promotion and marketing of the local public good in the form of traditional radio programs such as karndikas, stadskanaal fm, ndtv, and others.
