streaming AAR listeners
Why does AAR have "filler" music sometimes instead of commercials? Does this mean they are not getting enough advertisers? Is this something else??

I notice it a lot the past few weeks during Franken and Randi's show.

1. Usually, nationally broadcast shows leave spaces for local commercials
Since you listen online, no local commercials to hear.

4. on the radio
on the radio ( as opposed to online) they do traffic updates and weather and some local news but online its just ad after ad after ad after ad...

but yeah...I have noticed that as well. Pretty odd.

I am not digging the new real player format where you cannot pause and then scrub through the commercials. Makes it hard to listen to...that wendy freezen chick drives me nuts!
