Could use a little lightening up. New music fans keep getting screwed by corporate radio "balance sheets."

It is sadly ironic after all the time, effort, and money invested to keep a rock based format in NYC, an iPod from Chicago running as an "after thought place holder" had the most visible short term gains with the rock format.

True, it may have  just been an afterthought feed, but it was surprisingly well programmed musically.  It's the first and ONLY time alternative was done correctly in NYC.  There were no Tom Petty or AC/DC songs mixed in, it was very current based, with some gold as well.  It was essentially a copy of Radio 104.5 in Philadelphia, which coincidentally, is number one in A18-34 and A18-49.

Even sadder, the last few weeks it's actually been BETTER than 104.5 I'd argue. 104.5 while very good, has wandered very soft and indie of late. RXP was refreshing.
