Companies have downsized to almost no staff. How much longer can they survive? Then what?

I stated before that by 2012 there would be few English stations left in Houston I think Now around five!

Then whats left will have to be able to really go after the listener. Maybe then real radio will return?

Then again Iran is our friend!
 
Most companies are faced with investor fatigue and will do everything possible to cut expenses. The down side for non managers is, if you are viewed as someone that is not contributing to the top line you are now or soon to be out of a job. 2009 Will be a very interesting year for radio...

We were forced into that position by corporate radio sucking. However, given all the choices on the 'Net compared to the few choices in terrestrial, everybody should be happy, right? We get music and downloads we like, and they get fewer pain-in-the-*ss listeners at remotes and on the request lines, asking for music that's not on the playlist.

Win/win, right?
