In our market, we have two country stations that play mostly "modern" country. For a number
of years we also had a rimshot station that played classic country.
The two modern country stations both out-billed the classic country station, although I don't
know how much better one does over the other in terms of billing these days.
I'm actually interested in this topic myself, as I am a potential applicant for an LPFM when that
opportunity becomes available. Classic country is enough of a niche format that it might actually
develop a following again with no classic station in the market.
For the stream, which is available now, I do play the currents - but with a heavy does of classic country on a daily basis. This mix is now trending up.
