...enjoy listening to your own music and what's your favorite album of yours? -Carson Grubb in Spokane, Wash.You know, I don't listen to me much. I listen to Radio Margaritaville [on Sirius satellite radio]. The good thing about having your own radio station is they play everything you ever did. [laughs] That is not something that happens in normal earth-bound, terrestrial radio. So as I'm cruising along, I more or less listen to Radio Margaritaville because I hear things and I go "wow, that song's pretty cool, maybe I should put that back...
...north, now in its 60th year, is far more established and, some say, genteel, Manchester's event is hoping to rival Edinburgh's cultural significance, all while retaining its edgier, Mancunian identity. "It's definitely going to raise Manchester's profile within certain circles," said Cinta, a local radio journalist. "We're normally known as a city of industry, not arts...

"When we made the Ram Radio top ten list of 2006, people would come up to me at shows and say 'I bought your album on the Internet after hearing your music on Last.fm or Pandora' or many other of these services," Allcorn said, referring...
...Grammy winner Cathy Fink, who counts herself in an even more radio-unfriendly genre - children's music - offered a feisty counterpoint to Allcorn, insisting and re-insisting that she deserved to be fairly paid for her work. She pays for her own instruments, her own recording sessions, and her own health insurance, so why shouldn't she be fully compensated? She expressed little sympathy for webcasters and their plight. "There's all this talk that not all Internet radio companies are going to survive, but that's true with all businesses," Fink said. "Not every bicycle company survives. Not every...
