sucketh, whole and large

Why am I not surprised to see this phrase in the first sentence of a Morford column?

Lmfao. I agree though, corporate/Clearchannel radio does suck. the only stations I listen to are the local sports station and classic rock.

This is the future:

Podcasting - Anyone can produce their own programming and people can subscribe to it. You can interact - call and record your own voice comments.

In Britain, music radio is alive and well - plus we have this:

DAB Digital Radio

I got my first one of these radios today to listen to Classic FM, a "corporate" station. It's fantastic.

It's not the radio, it's the music that sucks.

I don't agree with that at all. There's some incredible new music out there, it just ain't gonna be heard on mainstream radio. Surely there's more than 4 or 5 Led Zeppelin tunes worthy of airplay on the "classic rock" station on the right side of the dial. Corporatations have killed radio, 'tis true.

[My Favorite Headache]

I can count on these words from any local classic rock station every day...

10.blank blank...the home of classic rock...that was Eric Clapton and before that some Heart rockin you through your -blank-day. Comin up in the next 45 mins of continuous classic rock and roll we get in some Seger,some Who,some Doors,gonna get the Led out with some Zep,got some Black Sabbath,Boston,Skynyrd,ZZTOP,AC/DC and kickin it all of with some Tom Sawyer from Rush by request.
