"Well, yes that would be cool, however, the Sonicnet Radio stations just aren't set up like that. We don't have the ability to break in and alter the programming. Instead, what happens is we sift through the albums and songs available on the system, submit a play list that identifies which tunes should appear with what regularity and then individual playlists are randomly generated. It's a cool thing which really ensures a diversity of sounds. Beyond that, in terms of hearing live music, there are plenty of places to go on the internet to hear live downloads (of varying quality, and incidentally, we are in the process of talking to some folks about adding a webcast fuctionality to jambands.com). However there aren't any other places where one can go to hear such an array of bands' official recordings. I think it's important to expose people to these releases- please read my editorial which addresses the issue this month."
