If you wondered why there's only crap on commercial stations, this is the reason. SMBMG bribed the radio operators to play their "top" titles and also hired fake call-ins that would suggest to an operator that some unknown song is popular when in fact the request was paid for. The record companies want you to listen to the crap they churn out.
Kinda reminds me of what that top IFPI guy said.
