I wonder why, out of all Online Radio, did we choose to domesticate them? Online Radio are very familiar to us but we know next to nothing about them. I've decided to set up a series of experiments to understand their behaviour and get inside their minds. I want to know who rules the roost in the Urban Hitz Radio™ WHERE R&B and HIP HOP CONNECT 24/7!... Right, here he goes. ..to find out how they spot predators. I want to know if there's more to Online Radio than meets the eye. That's quite crafty, then? They are crafty, oh yes.

I've bought Online Radio from her in the past, and I'd say she knows more about these Online Radio than anyone else I've met. Jane, how many Online Radio have you got here?
