I think voice tracking and importing in smaller markets is a product of deregulation ... did that happen much before dereg?

Yes, especially in the decade of the 70's where a huge percentage of FMs used voice tracked, taped syndicated formats. Companies like SRP, Bonneville, Drake Chennault, Peters, IGM. RPM, Churchille, Kala, FM 100, TM, etc. had literally thousands of stations running these automated formats all over the nation, from the very top markets to the smallest.

As a percentage, there were far more voice tracked and automated stations in that decade than today.

Voice or no voice-over, from a music fan's perspective, it is the Playlist that is King !

Lately the King's are tyrants, and whose going to tell them, they have no clothes ! ! ! ;D
 
Bottom line.Never engage D.E. in any type of discussion,because its not. He has to be the one with all the correct answers,and everyone else is wrong. It literally sucks the life out of a topic.
