I recall when Fuel first hit the air there were a few threads on it and people mentioning that it sounded like something they would like. I signed up on their website and do their listener surveys every couple of months. In the Random thoughts thread yesterday I worried that something was up when there were no morning crew or weather or traffic reports, and the morning DJ blogs were pulled when I looked for them.

This sucks, I supported them since they hit the airwaves.

And while internet radio is fine, my network cable doesn't stretch to my car and the RIAA & CRIA are still trying to force huge licensing costs on internet broadcasters, and that will kill them. My work blocks all streaming media. And I'm not a patient enough music listener to sift through all new music to pull out the good stuff for iPod listening. Satellite is an option, but Sirius is bleeding money and barely survived bankruptcy this spring even after they took over XM.

Fuel was the best station for me, and I am disappointed it will be gone.
