AuralMoon's three greatest assets are the community, the timely request feature, and the broad definition of prog/art-rock, or even "artistic" rock. With that being said:
Brown noser? Nah, you're just a sycophant.

Where was that said? Certainly not by me.

If he dediced to add 25% of Primus' material, or a dozen or so select Zeppelin songs, or a half-dozen Beatles songs, applaud him for footing 98% of a free-to-us prog station with a huge library.
Do you know that 87.3% of quoted statistics are made up 53.9% of the time and that the remaining 61.2 % don't add up?
