Saved? Probably not. It has become the greatest avenue to the exposure of myriad musical genres. The number of internet radio listeners dwarf the old AM/FM listener counts. XM and Sirius also show that the public is looking for alternatives. Sadly, both XM/Sirius have become what the general public was looking to get away from in the first place.
Looks like we're saying the exact same thing. Isn't that interesting about XM/Sirius... it always happens.

Got stats? Got milk? All I'm saying here is that more exposure for all means the same increase. Just a simple weighted average that's all.
