Sounds like nonsense to me. Just like most poll results, it reflects
the results wanted by those who pay for the poll. No ads, no fading from obstructions, play what you want when you want. A play list is more than just content, it is the order and frequency played as well. You collect all the songs you can, but you listen to what you like. Curt David Gleason wrote: There is definitely an element of "it's my list" but the fact is, extensive research showed the average number of songs on an iPod is 300 and they closely mirror the playlist of the radio station the iPod user listens to. The key issue is that carrying an iPod is cool, while a (analog) radio is not. iPod = cool. Digital = Cool. Make radio digital, it is cooler than it was and moves up in image among entertainment choices. -----Original Message----- From: irca-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:irca-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of W.

It doesn't have anything to do with digital, except as a means to an end. It is their play list, not someone else's, that's why they like it. W.

Perception is reality, or why would people prefer the ultra compressedaudioon an iPod to CDs and FM? It's because it's an iPod and it's digital! |
