I am originally from Germany but moved to Canada almost 30 years ago. Sometimes I still enjoy listening to german radio stations on my Sonos system and of course they include advertising for whatever business might advertise on whatever local or regional channel I am listening to. Of course whatever special some german pizza shop has is of little relevance to me here in Canada, but that's just the way it is and let's not forget that before the internet and being able to listen to streams from all over the world me listening to a german radio station in Canada wasn't even remotely possible. Also, just out of curiocity, what is all that jibberish after your message (see the text of your message below).
