The radio station wouldn't necessarily broadcast "dodgy sounding demos" as you put it. There would be a wide variety of music from the local scene and from further afield. I would imagine there would be an element of quality control involved when the material is being chosen for broadcast, and if the shows are entertaining, informative, and have a semblance of professionalism about them, then I think it would be a great success.
It would also have the added benefit of attracting a lot more users, advertisers and sponsors to the site, if managed correctly. The site needs to evolve away from being dominated by the forums, and a radio station would be a more constructive way of participating in and contributing to the Aberdeen music scene as a whole. IMHO, anyway.
