No Wonder There’s Never Anything Good on the Radio

News Item: Music Execs Resign in Payola Scandal

Seriously, these days I could listen to Top 40 radio for two hours without hearing a single good song- and being subjected to 5 different plays of that awful “hey Mr. DJ” song. That’s why I’m cheering this new “Jack FM” radio format (called “Ben” in Philly), which plays an eclectic mix of music and is designed to sound like an iPod on shuffle.

I was looking for that station online. Is there a way to connect with shoutcast or realtime? Looks interesting.

The "Jack" format station here is like the iPod of a very boring person who was only exposed to a couple decades of top 40 radio.
