what happend to radio shows? not liek talk shows but the ones that were radio plays?

SO to clairfy. im asking what happend to the radio shows that were essentially plays on the radio. War of the worlds was orginally a radio show. I like that sort of thing cuase it stimulates my imagination to think about what everything looks like. plus i can enjoy it more cuase even though its fleshed out written. i can see what i want to see. :)

I really like radio plays too! CBC Radio here in Canada used to have them, including a really moving series, "Afghanada", a fictionalized story of Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan. But a year or two ago that kind of programming was eliminated in budget cuts :(
There is a nostalgia radio station here that plays old radio dramas, like detective stories, late in the evening. And I imagine you can find them on line, maybe YouTube?
