Musicians have very few resources for getting their music heard on a large stage. Grace Cabezas provided such a stage for musicians and now she's no longer on 88.9 in Miami. What's up with that? For 5 years Grace hosted this show, and now the show is non-existent. Did a shortage of musicians to interview just occur?

If this was a station management decision, it is a very poor decision. What are these Program Directors be thinking?

I also noticed that quite a few of the shows I watch online (I don't have a TV) will no longer be on next season. My favorite show, "Boston Legal" is retiring. "Private Practice" I heard is canceled, and a few of other shows I watch. I'm glad I don't have a TV - especially paying for TV.

When I watch a video on Hulu the advertisements are a minor annoyance, however I realize the ads are allowing me to watch the video.

I've belong to an affiliate program for years and have an affiliate account but have never used it. In an effort to try an produce quality music and at the same time monetize it without turning off a listener or fan, I decided to try and apply some adds to my streaming music, blog and website - taking the Hulu approach.

Not too many that it turns off a reader or listener, but just enough to create a balance with earning and site aesthetics.

Well, in order to monetize the blog and music you have to have traffic. I don't know if the things I'm doing will generate traffic, but I'll keep you in know. What I have noticed though is that when you perform a search on anything, the search results tend to favor keywords in the URL. For example, if I do a search on music, music.com, music.mp3.com, etc. are more apt to be in the top of the results.
