Why aren't there commericals when you stream a radio station?

I'm not complaining, I was just wondering why there aren't any commercials when I listen to a radio station on my computer. I'm listening to some stations out of Chicago through their website and they play some PSAs and crappy instrumental music and announce that commercials are playing on the radio not the computer.

    I believe the main reason for streaming radio is to take out all the commercials and have nothing but music,sports, or what ever it is your listening to.

    It depends on what search engine you are on.
