I'll miss the opportunity for live shows / meet n greets. Pain to get to during the day, but fun when the chance came up. Seth and Koz should coordinate something. ;)
 I feel badly for everyone who will be affected by this...hopefully some things will remain intact and any changes will be for the best.
 (I had just looked for a job there...Too bad though;  if the office leaves, there aren't too many music-minded jobs in/around DC.)

Ah, that makes sense.   I don't mean to sound like Grandpa Simpson again, but I miss good free radio!

What a pity about the demise of XM.  I was never a subscriber, but I liked the idea of a diversity of options.

If XM had been smart enough to hire Howard Stern first this wouldn't have happened.
