I don’t listen to the radio much any more. On occasion I am forced to do so because I forgot my I-pod but I am quickly reminded of why I turn it off. I get frustrated with the commercials. One time I was listening to a pod-cast of an hour program. It was about 26 minutes and still included some commercials.
My life is too short.
On the other hand I say, “Okay. It is free enterprise. Go for it. I salute you.” They have the freedom to sell me their product. The other side of free enterprise is that I don’t have to listen. I remember how I have even stopped listening to certain pod-casts because after the audience was built up and they had a following they started either demanding a subscription or inserting commercials. Fine with me. I hope you are successful. I can go somewhere else. I can find another outlet. I did it with TV years ago and am doing it to radio now.
So make all the money you can but not on me.
I love free enterprise.
