We Will All Pay for Radio

Steve Gilliard has the first in what promises to be a series of interesting essays up on some New Media developments, and covers a nice bit of history of pay TV. Worth a pass.

BBC America edits out fuck and nothing else

That I did not know.

I gave up on radio after the BBC gave up the Radio One studio to Frank Zappa for a couple of hours to say and play whatever he liked. I knew that it was never going to get any better than that.

From mike: I gave up on radio after the BBC gave up the Radio One studio to Frank Zappa for a couple of hours to say and play whatever he liked. I knew that it was never going to get any better than that.

Damn, I'm sorry I missed that. Wow. That must have been awesome!

There's a transcript here and probably a torrent of the show still up somewhere. Try searching for 'Zappa Radio One Star Special'.

Sorry for the derail John.

Nice article, and pretty much on the money from what it sounds like.

I'm thinking of going Sat radio soon...

I use to hate this one radio channel because it constantly played the same song every hour.
Now, every station does it...

And sometimes it's a half hour, not always the same song but sometimes the same person or group.
