This has been on my mind for years now:

Why do most radio stations insist on playing the same selection of songs over and over?

I imagine it must be a copyrights thing? Pay for usage of this particular catalogue for a year?

Don’t those DJs get absolutely sick of it after a while?

      I’ve never listened to KEXP on the air but their YouTube channel is amazing. It’s how I’ve found a good chunk of real obscure music that I’m in to. Can’t recommend them highly enough, might tune in on a digital radio service & give them a go!
