Bruce,
I remember Gene Allen years ago forecasting that AM would someday be
more like it once was without the number of stations we have today. With
the economy the way it is, I am amazed all these thousands of AM & FM
stations can stay afloat. Running a station is not inexpensive. The
electric bills alone killed KDUN. I do agree that most listeners in the
future will be listening on computers, Ipods, etc. That's where the ads
will be too, not much on FM and probably none on AM. One of the big
furnature companies, Wickes is gone bankrupt, so with well known long
lasting companies losing it, the world is certainly changing.
