*every city has 13 million people. have you ever heard of play lists?
that means someone else chooses what you are listening to. most
stations use play lists.
*nice try, in free market america, you have tons of choices, that are
almost all the same.

Thank you.. precisely my point. *It's a little like states that have a
choice of capital punishments for the condemned. Death by hanging, death by
lethal injection, death by gas chamber, death by electric chair.. it's all
death, the end result is precisely the same.


correct, and the corporate conservative blandness is driving millions
of people away. people downloaded music in droves for a reason. they
get to hear what they cannot hear on the radio.
pretty soon t.v. is going to get hit really hard. reruns of lousy
shows over and over again, and only what they think you want to watch,
or, what they own.
when i was a kid, believe it or not, in my metro area, and we are in
the top 20, had 5 channels on t.v., and on friday and saturday night,
there were so many choices, that i had to weigh which choice was
better, and cross my fingers.
today, i can get 29 stations on a good night, and just about all of
them are either showing infomercials, which should be illegal, or more
reruns of what i just watched earlier.
and cable and the dish are no better. and they cost to boot.
