Radio has many would-be saviors. There are those, like the recently merged Sirius and XM, that have put all their chips on the pay-radio table. Others, including iBiquity Corp., believe the future is in HD radio. And there are others, like Mike Agovino, COO of Triton Digital Media, who believe that all radio stations need to create a digital infrastructure: ESPN Radio apps, Internet video of musicians or a morning-show host, online audio streamed through your computer at work.

...Night? was Woolrich?s prime mixture of the paranoid and the paranormal - a cocktail that rarely fizzes in this flat adaptation.
