And they disappointed customers that directly paid for those channels. It's not quite the same as commercial radio losing a few disenfranchised listeners as losing paying customers.
They did take a hit from their changes, and their numbers were good (considering potential audience) under the deeper playlists. It's indisputable.

That's like saying they were the tallest midget.
Read this whole thread. Gotta agree with David on this one. However instead of arguing, each of you list two or three of what you think are the best AC's in the country. And then lets all listen to them, tight playlist or not, and come back and post our thoughts here after a few days to a week.
I'll start with WBEB in Philly, and WLTW in New York. I do know that WBEB is not streaming at this time.

Can't do better than WBEB and Lite.
In NOLA, Magic 101.9 does well and it does stream. I'm not saying they are one of the best in the country as they face no competition. But they do sound good and are consistent. Magic streams at http://www.magic1019.com
KODA in Houston and KVIL/Dallas also are solid ACs. KODA streams at http://www.sunny99.com and KVIL streams at http://1037litefm.radio.com
Just some thoughts.

Some personal favorites here would be WWDE/Norfolk and WXLY/Charleston, SC. I tend to prefer gold-heavy AC's.
Best way to find out what the best AC songs are, is for you to get the list that the leading AC stations are playing. It requires a subscription service but it's good for you to get set up like this.
The top AC stations in the country have a very tight playlist, no more than 200 to 300 hundred.
