Even keeping fairly well up daily with the radio boards, I must have missed the news of the full ratings coming back. When and how did this happen?

I don't think Arbitron should have much infringement concern, for example, about WHUD using those numbers to sell someone on Long Island. And yeah, I get the point ; some stations do use the beauty pageant rankings without paying. Thing is, they had been looking the other way on this for decades, plus in recent times when there has been minimal competition.

Is Arbitron losing that much? And the last time I checked, there were many markets -- entire markets -- that weren't even listed in the Hot 290. Apparently, no one in any of those missing towns subscribed?
 
In looking further at the ratings, they still don't include all stations. Specifically, none of the JVC Media stations are represented.
It looks like what they did was add the NYC stations back into the Nassau-Suffolk ratings.

Only those NYC stations that are subscribed to the total market report.
 
@ David G :

Does a company such as Clear Channel only have to use one station, or one umbrella auspice, to purchase one 'book' in a market and be given carte blanche to use the full run of all its stations' performances for sales in that market?

Same thing, of course, for CBS, Pamal, SBS, Cox, et al.

I'm fuzzy on this subscription stuff.
