I always wanted an all-news station on FM. With the wasteland that FM currently is, it's a wonder they don't squeeze that in. "AM Stereo" isn't the same. (Listening to 1010 WINS over the internet is the closest one can get to WINS FM . . . sometimes I plug the computer into the 180W/channel loud stereo to listen to these radio stations online) |

Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssure does.FLAC and PCM can do truly wonderous audio if the sampling rate is up there. |

Spent many years in broadcasting and recording. I'm one of the last types that would favor digital. And frankly, MP3 and the 44 and 48 Khz sampled audio as well as CD's absolutely suck for sound quality. You can't provide fidelity for cymbals with only two clock cycles per sample.However, PCM and FLAC upwards of 110 KHz sampling rate is aurally indistinguishable from a NAGRA recording with low noise amplifiers and absolutely better than a Sculley or studio Ampex. Distortion drives me up a wall, but so does hiss. There's some amazing stuff out there in the five and six figure range that you'll never find in somebody's livingroom. :) |

Just like a lot people have a hard time believe someone is gay until they're seen making out with another man no matter how many signs suggest it, it seems like people also have a hard time believing that someone is racist until they're heard saying the n-word.(I thought you were black, you can say "nigger".) I think Chris Rock said the same thing about Michael Richards.... |

It's not racist.First of all, "hoops and hip-hip crowd" is not a quote from a resident. No one is on record as saying that. And even if someone is, it's the music genre not skin color they are concerned with. Secondly, such projects always meet opposition. Look at the Islanders. They want to build a new arena with an apartment building complex, entertainment center, and other features. But wait, hockey is for white people! How can there be opposition? Makes no sense, unless you live in the real world like I do. Third point: Hip-hop in NYC means more than black. Seems like many people dress hip-hop a call each other "Nigga". |

If they have a club for hot lesbians exceptions might be made, but that's about it. ;)They listen to lame shit like k.d. lang, Ani DiFranco, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlann or Indigo Girls.

The bands that play in venues in Brooklyn are like the ones on that Coachella list.It's not old fart music. It's the music of today and tomorrow. Some will make it. Most will not.

People in Park Slope are afraid of their own shadow because it's black.They are the kind of people that seek out chosen "black friends" to show people back home in Iowa that they are so much more hip than the folks they left behind. They don't want the black people to choose them. |

I went to college with several people from the Midwest that, upon graduation, ended up in the LA area.It's mostly a desire to move to a city. A lot of people from Iowa, Nebraska, etc. also move to Chicago; but Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles are probably the target destinations of Midwestern Yuppies. |
