REMEDIATION. Pandora is one of the most primary examples of how remediation is alive and well in today's digital society. It's a site that has taken the radio and placed it essentially in the listeners' hands with the ability to skip songs they don't like and build stations around songs/artists that they tend to favor.

According to J. David Bolter and Richard A. Grusin their theory on the topic is the characteristics of new media and its continuous remediating media outlets such as television, radio, journalism and other old media. Remediation also spreads out and takes two different forms to explain it, such as immediacy and hypermediacy in its media form."
