There are two absolute guaranteed posts every time someone makes a radio thread on this forum.
1. "What this city needs is fuel 90.3 back"
2. "People still listen to FM radio?"
Responses:
1. Shutup. No one listened to that station, which is why it was pulled. Quit whining about it and go listen to Big Shiny Tunes 11.
2. Your probably making this post because you think you're funny. Fact is, no one is laughing. Probably the most overplayed post in CP history next to "hookers and blow"
So in summary, if your post is going to include either of the above subjects, do everyone a favour and click the back button.
kthx.
how about a new one? Bring back The Breeze 103.1. I need to hear John Tesh's luxuriant voice again.
That's the thing I don't get, we can have 3 or 4 stations all playing some variant of top-40/pop; and every once in a while, someone will try to take on CJAY; but Country 105 seems to just float by unchallenged. Sure, occasionally someone will try a hybrid station that'll play some crossover country, but no one goes straight head-to-head with them.
Sure, in a lot of markets, it wouldn't make sense, but I can't believe no one has tried it in Calgary.

It certainly is not a dying medium, no matter what the pretentious Sirius-listening d-bags think.
Just because I pay for my music, don't have to listen to commercials, and think I'm better
nevermind

The Stern channels are fullllllllllll of commercials. Seems like 10 minutes sets sometimes. Gotta pay him somehow I guess. Lord knows they don't have enough subscribers to cover his contract.

No, you're the one who needs to be shown a picture of that guy. The joke has already been made, and it flopped the first time. For someone to come in and make the same joke that already sucked, again, is just brutal.

I listened to this a bit last night, and was only able to put up with it for about 4 songs before I had to turn it off (Gwen Stefani, Rockwell, Ke$ha, then some 90s dance-pop something). Their playlist is way too broad.
I'll be surprised if it survives to see the fall 2011 BBM book.

sure seems to me that they are light on their candian content at the moment.........anywyas they seem to like to spin that rhianna/eminem song a couple of times during the work day........
as an aside i was big on satellite radio for a the first couple of months - but then i realised that they seemed to be on an 8 hour rotation - so i felt like i was listening tot eh same stuff on the drive to work and the drive home.
