Many of the music stations in the New York area have at least an hour of commercial free music every day, particularly those with A/C type formats. Generally these music blocks are in the morning. WNEW 102.7 has some in the afternoon hours.
Do these attract lots of additional listeners during important rating hours? Or are many of the stations offering commercial free music sweeps out of concern they will lose listeners to competitors, if they stop offering them?
