Untitled

As a big fan of AOL Radio I searched for the topic on Wikipedia and found no article. I thought it was strange that Wikipedia has information on so many other internet radio providers but not AOL Radio. I researched the topic by e-mailing people who work at AOL Radio to find out more about the history and background. I created this article with research and facts, not as an advertising technique.

STFU. The tone of this passage on the discussion page shows that you are a corporate monkey and this IS obviously an advetisement of some kind.

Advert copy

I marked this article as sounded spammy a few days ago and there have been no changes since. It's clearly not a high-traffic article, but it shouldn't sit as is regardless. If no one else will step up to edit it down, I frankly don't see why it shouldn't be marked for deletion. Is it adding to the body of knowledge of Wikipedia? 70.171.13.219 10:03, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Advertisement tag has been deleted, as the article has been substantially edited since this comment was posted.--KJRehberg (talk) 21:34, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

cleaned it up

I deleted a bunch of stuff out of it - doesn't look so much like an AD anymore.

Sectionalized

I sectionalized the article and added proper reference links and a References section. --KJRehberg (talk) 03:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Annoying ads

I listen to this all the time and I really wanted to know why a lot of the advertisements are for the AOL website. It seems really pointless to advertise the website that the radio station is located.

There's also a common advertisement for Michigan products and discounts, even though I don't live near Michigan? What's the goal of the advertisement if there's 49 other states, which only a few border? 12.96.136.2 (talk) 04:11, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a discussion forum for that topic.--KJRehberg (talk) 21:34, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
