They used to, but that was before Christmas turned into such a commercial holiday. I refuse to support stations that switch this early, personally.
When was it ever not about commercials in the radio business? Certainly not in my lifetime.

Well, for those Hispanics out there, the KYRQ 90.3 rimshot plays bilingual Christmas music through December 25th, along with their Spanish Christian talk programs. Most of the music's Spanish, though I have heard a few English songs.
If you were listening online, you probably got diverted to another feed. iHeart does that with its streams in the overnight hours. If you were listening on-air, it seems weird to go back to format on Friday and back to Christmas music. I've heard of a few stations that will play Christmas music the weekend between Christmas and New Year's, but that's usually when Christmas falls earlier in the week.

This previous post does not answer your question specifically but it might help you to narrow it down:

Just an observation, but Q sounds more Hot AC than AC. I've noticed several tracks that normally wouldn't hear on Q 101.9

Q101.9 appears to have dropped most of its 70's and 80's titles. More currents and more spins.

I'm guessing the huge fall month after month in the PPM's played a huge role in the latest tweak. Imaging remains the same...lame!

LOL still waiting for the day when we get a station that plays everything catchy from, perhaps, the 60's to today, with no boundaries. If it sounds good and upbeat, it should go on the air. I know the suited people in today's corporate radio world probably won't let that happen, but...
I don't usually listen to Q, but it's starting to sound exactly like Magic, the way you describe it. Just what we need.
