Meanwhile, the next generation thinks, with certain exceptions like Big Boy, that radio is boring and predictable and will only use it in the absence of a multiple of preferred alternatives. That is not just what I am saying, it is what they are saying.
Show me where they say that. The audience figures for millennials listening to broadcast radio are far greater than just one station. I can show you audience statistics that prove what I say. But first, show me all of your facts. Just remember...people will say all kinds of things. What matters is what they DO.
You don't understand the Norway story at all. I've leave that for someone else to explain. That's a government decision, not a programming one.
In general, we don't see that "better programming" is the primary motivation. Because when you evaluate the choices they're making, they're not based on "better programming," but rather things like convenience of device, ability to program it for more individualized choices, and the ability to interact with the content. But listen to the music they choose to listen to, and tell me it's "better." You mention Pandora, but is it "better?" Have you listened to it yourself? Name all the DJs on Pandora. What's compelling about the presentation on Pandora? Once again, you're assuming that they think like you think, and they like what you like. It's pretty obvious that they don't. So stop trying to put words in their mouths.
