Radio, radio: Where did all the music go? (CNN) -- "The result, according to critics: appealing to the lowest common denominator with a slimmed down playlist, and ignoring the fringes." (Comments: Too much research or not doing the right kind of research? I can't stand the radio. Blah!)

 

  

Reader Comments...
 

The Internet radio stations are tired of RIAA trying to squeeze every last cent out of them.

The People are tired of boring, formula music.

Successful musicians are tired of the strangehold the Labels have on them.

Independent musicians are tired of never being given the chance to be heard.

Everyone is tired of The System. How long do we have to wait for independents to organize a music library of copyright-OK tunes? Everyone will benefit, except the RIAA.

"Research started taking over," Abrams recalled. "People wouldn't go to the bathroom without going to a focus group."

The focus group - a great means for finding data to support an idea... And a very poor means to determine the soundness of an idea.
