“Some stations had libraries of 130, 140, maybe 200 songs. Imagine that: out of all the music created over the years, it was all strained down to the safe stuff, the songs that “tested” best.
These were the only songs anyone liked. Yep! Researchers and consultants were quite sure. After all, they were tested! So stations played a select amount of songs – often – to the increasing dismay of listeners who inevitably heard those same songs on similarly formatted stations with similar names from city to city. There was no escaping it. ”
