rcrespo Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 I have to disagree, Thats a service you gota pay, I cannot afford such, Webradios have always been free and that right now is the only option we have. 10 dollars a month? I'm sure you spend more than that on other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mister ben Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/10904886.htm?1c Posted on Tue, Feb. 15, 2005 Party 93.1 switches to rock format BY CHRISTINA HOAG choag@herald.com South Florida's dance music station Party 93 is now a rock and roller. The station abruptly switched formats late Monday and is now Rock 93. The move comes three days after Clear Channel flipped its progressive rock station WZTA 94.9 FM to Hispanic urban on Friday, leaving fans of new rock groups such as Pearl Jam and Hoobastank in the lurch. ''Cox decided there is room for a second rocker,'' said Tom Taylor, editor of Inside Radio/M Street. ``The chessboard just changed again.'' The format change is the second for 93.1 FM. For years, until January 2002, it was classical station WTMI. Cox Radio then changed the call letters and format to WPYM and rhythmic dance music, which has had mediocre success as a radio format across the country. Faced with less than stellar ratings and an opportunity to sweep up WZTA's fan base, Cox decided to make the switch before those listeners found new niches in stations such as Clear Channel's WBGG-FM 105.9, classic rock, or WHYI-FM 100.7, contemporary. THe switch is also the third this year in South Florida's competitive radio market. Last month, WKAT-AM 1360 turned from classical into conservative news/talk.

nexusgroove Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 We know Zeta switched to latin because of the low ratings & Party switched to rock to fill the void.BUT, I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE THE SWITCH AFTER WMCFYI DANCESTAR AWARDS LEFT MIAMI, let's hope WMC doesn't leaveseasunzwww.ozent.com www.ultramusicfestival.us I know right thay seemed to have so much do with WMC and Ultra this year.But the CEO's don't give a shit, they got money and flip a coin to make these changes, they don't think it thru.
