It's true: Radio really does suck! Thanks to Clear Channel's monopoly upon the airwaves, promotion venues, billboards, taxi ads, and focus groups... "live and local" radio is dead meat.
Transcript of tonight's show:

Clear Channel says in defense of their anticompetitive monopoly:
"Clear Channel’s sheer size isn’t what makes us a formidable competitor. It’s our excellence in understanding the needs and wants of consumers. In order to do so, we compete hard but fairly and within the rules."
MUAH HAH HAH!!! KISS FM is the pinnacle of radio desire?!? God help us.
I praise Napster, Audiogalaxy, Morphius, and streaming internet radio. Without them, NO music would ever escape from the computer-guided focus groups that are now the gatekeepers of our society. Keep the fight alive, kids. Remember, hi-fi and good music are inseperable!
