Multi-format station sites

I'm talking about places like 181.fm and 1ClubFM, as well as AOL radio. Which do you think has the best programming? Sound quality?
I find 1ClubFM to have the best programming variety, but the audio compression is very fatiguing. I understand the need to keep the music level, but the fast attack and release times cause a very irritating "pumping" effect. I would listen over there more if they slowed down the attack/release times a bit.
181.fm has much better audio quality but the programming isn't as good as 1club.fm.
AOL and Slacker are "jukeboxes", very repititous, although good audio quality.
Any ones that I left out?
 
181.fm
.977

and many others with simlar names, are basically run by like 3 people, so obviously the quality is going to suffer, you're better off going with single stations and staying away from the big networks if you want quality programming. I know of a station that is hand programmed everyday (and has been for the last 6 or so years), www.kmgx.com
 
I agree, you can't replace quality with quantity.

x.fm
xx.fm
xxx.fm
123.fm
321.fm
DF.fm
etc
etc
etc...

The free-ride WILL BE OVER for all these "big-box-cookie-cutter-jukeboxes" when Royalties issue finally settles. Once they start enforcing it -- they will not be able to afford it.
