IMO, the main problem with the stuff is that it seems to homogenize vocal music, at least from the demo I saw on the tube in the news. Just what we need - the same flippin' crap blared at us over and over again. Ugh.
How about a guerilla campaign to hack pitch correction software so that anyone who uses it sounds like the Chipmunks? Hmmm...use the rootkit philosophy...it sounds OK to the people making the recording, but in reality it's being knobbled on the version to be released to the public. Homeland Security gets on this terrorism right away, but, in a fiendish response, the insurgents alter all video clips of national leaders. Joe Lieberman gets up and gives a ringing denunciation of the audioterrorists, but in mid speech he starts to sound like Simon.
Any kind of pitch correction software is an abomination and an insult to the people who have dedicated themselves to learning the nuances of singing.
If you can't do it live, just don't f****** do it at all.
edit- It brought a tear to my eye to think about that, for real

That reminds me...a little-known fact it that initial misconfiguration of Auto-Tune made Cher sound like Alvin in her 1998 "Believe" album. A few copies got out to the marketplace before anyone noticed. Anyone with such a copy should upload it to RP immediately.
Oh BTW, was Cher even there during the recording of that track??

looks like some people didn't really read my post. i'm not whining - just explaining why i switch off RP every now and then although it's my favorite channel.
and i think there's an easy solution that will keep everybody happy. there is so much good music in the world and in rp's archives. why not make sure that each artist is played at most once per 24 hours? that would also keep the mix really eclectic. i can stand no matter which artist once per day. it's just that when i hear music that i really hate 3 times in one day, i switch channels.
please think about it. i'm sure you can keep more listeners happy that way.
I can get behind that, I too, have a very short att

Oh, I agree with you... I feel like I hear WAY too many songs too often, especially things like Built to Spill, Interpol, Muse, Florence and the Machine, Midnight Oil, Kings of Leon, the Raconteurs... The list goes on... I'd love to hear a lot more variety, especially more world music, and singer-songwriter folk stuff. But hey, there's no accounting for taste. When I get tired of the mix here, I listen to something else.

I read your post. If it felt like a problem to me, I'd be more interested in a solution. I never hear anything I hate, except, well, maybe David Bowie's Space Oddity, but I still like it better than changing to another sound source.
