Default Eduardo - Serious Question For You

You have driven the choice audience away with your lame programming.
People have been leaving since the mobile CD player came on the scene.
Numerically driven music programming is what drove people like me to AM
and made Rush Limbaugh "relevant".

Now that the only people that are left listening to music on FM are morons
or public radio types, who never listen to AM on principle, why the ****
not put the chaos on the FM as well?

It's only a matter of time before somebody makes a 3G car radio that'll
pick-up 10,000 stations. Like I do at home. Hell, 32 kb/s sounds better
than most FM stations, the way you guys mangle it.

The problem is that there is no business model for this, no ratings system
that can accommodate it. Like the current issues with YouTube (look at the
split with Warner and Warner-Chappell), no matter how popular a website or
service may be, if there is not a viable and practical business model, it
will fail or become a hobby.
