Radio Linkage

If you haven't experienced FineTune.com yet, you're missing out on the next big thing. The more jaded among you will say it's like Pandora, but you should take special note that it's a free service with many sharing features -- like the embedded playlist you'll find on each page of the ZombieRadio website.

Next on the list is an article from WashingtonPost.com all about how music research is sucking the life out of commercial radio. We at ZombieRadio couldn't have phrased it better if we tried.

Finally, some more BS about HD in an article from WIRED. I found the reader comments more interesting than the article.

PS: Found another article link I really like. Not only does it possibly win the title of longest headline I've ever linked in a blog entry -- it also agrees with one of my long-established points of view. WiFi and WiMax are going to to kick some serious Satellite ass.

Give Me Some Skin

Philly's new "Skin Radio" sees a future for music on AM radio.

Tom Kelly (Marconi Broadcasting) told Inside Radio "in the research, we found that listeners in their 20s don't have a negative attitude about AM radio" -- not the way some baby boomers do.

Kelly (who just paid $5 million for 1340 WHAT) likes the future for music on digital AM. And ZombieRadio thinks he's right. With digital broadcast of AM stations on HD Radio (one of the few real benefits of HD Radio at all) and the sure-to-kill-HD WiFi Radios combined with city-wide Wi-Max signals, matching digital streams with a terrestrial AM radio has most-likely never been more lucrative.

Skin Radio is streaming (at SkinRadio.com).

Brraaaaainnssss...

Focusing primarily on terrestrial radio broadcasting, ZombieRadio.com is dedicated to pointing out the mindless and brain-dead actions of the mainstream media industry in general. 

Don't get too comfortable satellite, television, cable, and internet -- we all know from seeing zombie movies that the contagion spreads quickly.

"They're coming to get you..."

rethink, respond, remerge.
