Yep, good. They essentially locked down free streaming of hundreds of radio stations unless you accessed the stations through iHeart's buggy spyware "app". They were going to be the monopolist broker for all radio stations. They are one of the reasons it's so hard to find streams of any of the "talkers".

From Wikipedia:

On Friday, November 17, 2006, Clear Channel [former name of iHeart] announced that it was going private and selling off almost one-third of its radio assets, according to The Washington Post and DHM. The buyers, led by Bain Capital Partners and Thomas H. Lee Partners, agreed to pay $26.7 billion for the company. [ed]

Bain sucked the life out of another company.
