Can you source that? Arbitron hasn't yet released information on 
specific formats. There's no publicly available information on 
individual channels, including Howard Stern. No one has exact 
information. You might want to rephrase that to "I believe Beautiful 
Music on XM has a large following."

Toward the end virtually every Beautiful Music syndicator and station 
found it necessary to record their own music. I was Creative Chairman 
of the International Beautiful Music Association. It was a large 
group of stations and syndicators who shared music. Both Schulke 
Radio Productions, Bonneville International and Darryl Peters' FM-100 
(Chicago) felt it necessary to record music.

What we do know is that Bob Bittner's WJIB, Cambridge, MA, has a 
large following because Arbitron says so. The station is the highest 
rated AM after the 50Kw heritage stations in the market.
