Yupper - there she goes! Actually, no stations ceased HD broadcasting; a few have had different formats put on the HD2 channels based on listener response. There are no "Format Lab" stations. The "Format Lab" is a development center in San Antonio where different concepts are streamed and the ones with the most hits and longest listening spans get put on actual radio stations. The ones that don't attract interest are nuked and other ideas tried; it's an ongoing process. The idea is to create new content for HD that has not been found on radio up till now. http://www.clearchannelmusic.com/formatlab/ As I said, the format lab tests "what if" formats for possible use on terrestrial radio. They evaluate the formats by hits and length of each hit and return hits from the same user. The formats that don't work are periodically flushed and new ones are developed and tried. The nature and number of the formats on the Format Lab page has nothing to do with the operation of the terrestrial stations, analog or otherwise, run by Clear Channel. STUPID ****ER! The truth hurts, huh? His eloquence knows no bounds. |
