TalkTalk (live forum): "We're getting ready to start streaming again, and looking at different services. We're leaning toward live365 right now. Is anyone using them, and what has your experience with them been?..."


The Forest (column): "AAA has already had that from the beginning. New music. It'll be the only format pounding the new Bruce Springsteen album in a few weeks. It'll be the format pounding the new U2 in March. Christ, the format is filled with worthy new music, serving a niche that will help keep the format alive in this difficult time, presented by people who don't lie and don't waste a listener's time. The rest of radio thought AAA wouldn't serve enough people when it rose in the early 90's. The old rock signals would continue to dominate with their mass appeal numbers. Wrong. Radio's current music stations are sooooooo terrified of adding new music that they've killed themselves. Jocks sound bored as they read cards. While AAA may end up on new stations that can soon be bought for 20 cents on the dollar!..."
