Yes, while other stations are cashing on the love advice format, which saturates most of the afternoon and late evening blocks on radio, DWKC iFM and its nationwide network breaks from the pack.
Their take on the primetime evening is not the mushy, cheese give your listeners advice attack, instead they adopt a horror format.
With the program-segment Takutin Mo Ako – anchor personality Pakito Jones reads letters from listeners that share their horrifying experiences.
The program is sprinkled-complete with production value, special effects, scoring, it’s a one-man band and Pakito Jones pulls it off.
Hats off again to iFM for innovating.
Great job to Van Omega and the rest of the RMN FM Division.
Their radio personalities however continue to upload videos and post live videos of their boardwork on Facebook.
But like many stations, they still primarily live stream using IBM Cloud, which is now the owner of UStream.
Other stations are still using shoutcast or icecast servers for audio only listening.
There is an upside to using YouTube though.
1.) The can monetize their stream
2.) The server is reliable
3.) Its reach is wide
The downsides though to YouTube streaming:
1.) Copyright takedowns, even if you are a licensed FM radio, the bots will automatically remove any uploaded videos
Such is what happened to a radio station in Cebu when they used YouTube to live stream, but their video was taken down by Warner Music.
This is the very reason why most Facebook Live sessions by DJs are only during adlibs or off the air work. They usually mute or turn the down the volume of their actual music they play live on the air, to prevent the bots from tagging their videos.
This is the very reason why competitor DWRR still uses BrightCove for their live stream. It is a very exclusive platform , so unless you subscribe to TFC abroad, you won’t be able to listen.

For as long as there has been radio, love-advice programs have been entertaining listeners with stories sent by ordinary people.
IFM 93.9 (DWKC FM) takes on the classic program, in its purest form, asking for letter senders to share their stories of love, heartaches, struggles, joys and even strange ones.
Dear iFM an afternoon is implemented on all IFM stations nationwide. In Manila, DJ Megandang Megan shares a story from a letter sender usually ending with soliciting advice from the announcer. The DJ would ask her listeners to participate through text or phone in.
While other station’s like Tambayan 101.9 and Love Radio are taking such a program to a new level, IFM sticks to the roots by giving the listeners a chance to share their opinions about the letter sender’s situation. Continue reading Dear iFM on 93.9 iFM→
