Therefore, play lists are limited to the songs that demographics show most people want to hear. Clear Channel is huge, because they are good at what they do. They cater to the majority. You can't fault them with that... it's business! I don't fit that majority, so I usually only listen to online radio, which has a much better selection. Try shoutcast.com.

The problem is that Clear Channel has such a stronghold,others can't compete.They own huge chunks of radio and television.With this new legislation allowing them to own both in the same market,it will be even more so.
Clear Channel CEO is a man named Lowery Mays.He is a huge supporter and major campaign contributor to George Bush.they are old family friends.
