Hey, cool... is there a candidate in favor of privatizing the Liquor Control Board? I'll vote for 'em.
I hate the ads too. I'm spending more and more time with my CD/MP3 player in the car, and not ust because of those ads in particular. (Did you ever listen to Howard Stern? Or Opie and Anthony (RIP for now at least)? I'm not a regular listener, but I've turned them on sometimes. Regardless of whether you like their shtick, it's very hard not to notice that about 50% of the airtime is commercials. I once turned on Stern on the way to work and listened to nothing but commericals from 8:40 to 9:00.) I even have to pick on WRTI... I always seem to be turning them on just in time to get their news updates... sorry, RTI, but if I want to hear news I'll listen to WHYY or KYW. I'd appreciate being able to turn on a music station and listen to music.
And satellite radio is looking better... if the receivers get closer to $100, I may take a flyer on one. (Though even there, one of the services has some channels that carry commercials.)
