A few years ago, Radio Woodstock (WDST) experimented with an innovative approach to fund a commercial community and music-focused radio station by borrowing from the Non-Comm world by asking its listeners to donate financial support to the station and in return, the station pledged a continued commitment to inventive local programming that does not pander to the ratings system while also focusing on local businesses as opposed to big national chains for advertising, and to limit the amount of advertising in each hour. The results speak for themselves and the 2021 Drive
