Growing segments of the music-listening public will, however, still be bored out of our skulls with the poor content offered by an artfully unmotivated broadcast radio and the woefully inept recording industry that continue to spoon-feed an art hungry populace the top-forty trash they continue to rewarm and regurgitate. My advice is to support live music in all its forms. Buy that local band's CD's t-shirts, pay the cover fees that go to keeping the bands alive. It truly is one of the only ways left for the masses to make a personal dent in the systematic suffocation of art culture.

I listen to Pandora almost daily and this will leave a large void. Good luck to the guys over there, especially Tim. This is horrible news and I’m not sure why I am surprised.

The official news release even made it to the front page of Billboard Publicity Wire. Let's just hope that it's not too late to effect some change in this whole ordeal. I'm crossing my fingers.

What would happen if broadcasts continue and the paying of royalties is boycotted? What could authorities do to anyone protesting in this way? I have a question.
