A November 1994 Rolling Stones concert was the "first cyberspace multicast concert." Mick Jagger opened the concert by saying, "I wanna say a appropriate welcome to everyone that's, uh, climbed into the Internet tonight and, uh, has got into the M-bone. And I belief it doesn't all collapse."

On November 7, 1994, WXYC (89.3 FM Chapel Hill, NC USA) became the first traditional radio station to announce broadcasting on the Internet |

| WXYC accustomed an FM radio connected to a Internet Radio fixed order at SunSite, later known as Ibiblio, running Cornell's CU-SeeMe software |
| WXYC had begun blue book broadcasts and bandwidth testing as initial as August, 1994. WREK (91.1 FM, Atlanta, GA USA) started streaming on the same day using their own custom software called CyberRadio1 |
| However, unlike WXYC, this was WREK's beta launch and the stream was not advertised until a later date. |
