Since radio is no help, I don't blame a band for doing what they need to so 
that people are aware they exist and have new music to offer. I don't equate 
the marketing venue to the quality of their music.

In a perfect world, yeah, I'd like to hear music apart from car ads, Target 
commercials and CW programming. But that's not the world we live in.
