The stations we're sending to are mostly college stations which are, by definition, independent. The students or a faculty member pick the tunes and they only play music they like. College and Indie radio are pretty much the last bastions of the good radio model. That being said, if ClearChannel wants to put my music on their networks, I'd be fine with that too. The catch is that ClearChannel <b>won't</b> want to play my stuff because I'm not tied to a quarter-million-dollar PR budget. Mike-
