http://www.quick106.com/quick/Press.htm Just in case you needed another affirmation in the general idiocy of the world, check out Quick 106 based in Portland (and run by the puppy dogs at Clear Channel). To cater to the short attention span of today's radio listeners, they will only be playing clips of songs which will amount to a startling 426 songs being played EVERY FUCKING HOUR. I shit you not. This kind of "innovative" broadcasting could be brought to you buy a company in bed with the RIAA considering the kind of royalties one needs to pay on 426 songs an hour. Jesus... I'm still having a tough time understanding how something like this could possibly be real. Its more ludicrous than the Internet radio legislation. -Aaron --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
