The problem is the "personalized" music services, such as Pandor,
Slacker, and Last.FM which allow the listener to program their own
"personalized" music stations. clearchannelmusic.com/hdradio just runs
what some programmer thinks listeners want to hear, not listener
chosen, personalized playlists.

Where the hell did you get THAT idea - laughable!

Because listener research is used to determine the good and bad songs so
stations can play the best ones. You really don't think that a station
program director just makes up the list of songs to be played, do you?

I prefer a human programmer. They'll typically do a "no repeat
workday" thus providing lots of variety, but also having a huge
library of classic hits.

Sounds like you're simply scared of Pandora because it represents
progress and technological innovation.

Not really. I was one of the FIRST people to try pandora, almost two
years ago.

What...you mean you actually used the internet? Weren't you afraid
that it would cease to exist before you could finish doing anything?


You keep swinging-and-missing.

BTW you really love your computer's internet. Have you tried
"interfacing" with the female port yet? It's probably more exciting
than teh blow-up doll you've been using.

LOL....it's always easy to tell when a 'nerve' has been struck. I knew
from the minute you opened your pie hole in this group that at bottom
you're a technophobe. The fact that you're an engineer makes it even
sweeter.

The playlists on terrestrial radio are chosen by listeners.

Not exactly. The listeners only get to choose from among the songs
appearing on a master list which is compiled by someone in the industry.
If a particular song isn't on that list, the listeners obviously can't
choose it for a station's playlist. So the question is, who is the
mystery person that compiles the master list of songs? That person holds
the power of deciding what songs can be chosen by the listeners for the
station playlist.

Death metal in AM stereo is still a fond memory during the Las Vegas
IBOC trials in 2002.

That's why Pandora, Last.FM, and Slacker cream HD Radio:
