I wish commercial radio would just die already. It’s in this weird zombie state where, according to Nielsen, about 80 percent of Americans listen to at least five minutes of radio a week. Nielsen conveniently doesn’t say how much more than five minutes a week it is, but generally it doesn’t seem like it’s that much more. With the rise of other media there’s a wealth of other options advertisers can choose that will give more exposure time. As a result radio ad revenues are down to be about half of what they were from the start of the 2008 financial crisis, in real dollars. In our city all three of the major operators have filed bankruptcy since 2017.

This basically means that the commercial companies can’t take any risks and have to keep the playlists safe, and the music industry, which has its own monetezation problems, hasn’t been doing testing to determine new hits with broad enough appeal to get new songs on the playlist because radio’s not as huge a priority.

I get DC101 here in northern Virginia. They do a pretty good job of mixing old w new. Although most the new stuff sounds like fags fucking.

I used to listen to radio everday from ~2000 to 2004 and infrequently from like 2005 to 2008 and then never.

do people actually still listen to radio unironically?

>>126904892
I would say a good amount of lower class boomers still do.

Been that way for at least 35 years when Clear Channel playlists were established. You'd have to go back to, like, 1972 to find a time when DJs were really free-form.

College stations are generally still great and the NPR music affiliates surprise me occasionally. But the Iheart, Audacy, Cumulus, Townesquare, Urban One, and EMF stuff is all garbage. One of our black people stations is independent, but the playlist is pretty safe and generic.

Here in DFW we’re lucky to have a decent NPR music affiliate, Fort Worth(Not Dallas or Denton) has a great college station, and Dallas has a free form station that plays way too much Spanish language, Gospel, Blues, and Country.(but the rest of the time they play something else and it’s generally pretty neat. Usually, in to the evening hours 8 to midnight.)

San Frantonio hasn't had a real class rock station since they inexplicably unplugged KZEP about ten years ago, and the current iHeart version is a bland commercialized woke imitation. The one good thing about Austin is KLBJ.

As I've said before there's an Clear Channel 50s-60s playlist they always use and I've often heard in diners, antique shops, etc and it's also the same predictable songs usually including Earth Angel, the Banana Boat Song, At The Hop, and It's My Party. The vast majority of the songs linked in the thread here are never ever heard on those.

>>126904892
I only listen to Raidió na Gaeltachta when the diddly music is playing. That's about it

listen to joutube on your smartphone like any other onions

I like Sirius xm radio. They still play a lot of generic crap there but at least there's a lot of variety and there's a deep tracks station thst plays all sorts of random older stuff. And I like oldies stations still and the 60s and 70s stations are good time capsules for driving

If you take in to account that every personal car driver in the world has an AM/FM stereo built in to their car, you'll start to answer your own question. Plus, most people just use music as a background accompaniment. They don't intellectualize music like you and I.
Just think about your aunt or some random co-worker and try to ask yourself what their favorite music is. I'd bet they wouldn't even have an answer, or worse, it would be some ridiculous answer like Maroon 5 or Barry Mannilow.

Where's my irreverent right of center morning guy who sounds exactly like the one the next city over? And his trusty sidekicks!

>>126905849
Nothing's stopping you from making a better bot!

>>126904892
I do. There's a local station that plays only weird, old jazz and vocal pop from the early 1900s. It's the only thing I listen to in the car. I have no idea how a station like this can exist. Check out this banger I heard last week.

>too harsh and punk for the millennial ear.
Millennial here. Love nickelback, creed, days of the new and nirvana. All great buttrock. Nothing harsh about it.

>>126911017
Agreed. Millennial here. Nirvana is up there with the greats like Papa Roach and Sum41.

Better than hearing acoustic s o y shit like X Ambassadors and AWOLnation
