I'm not entirely sure that it does work this way in the UK.
IIRC, far from the radio stations paying to play, they are instead paid to "power play" certain tracks.
This is of course funded by "teh big evil labels", and we end up with nothing short of drivel(DJ's) punctuated by pap(sponsored music).
It leads to the situation where "free to air" radio is entirely dismiss-able.
X Sadat said it best:
Question why is it that everytime I turn on the radio
I hear the same five songs fifteen times a day for three months
Man funk that !!
Get a new dj !!
Except now it would seem more appropriate to replace DJ with Business model.
i haven't read all the comments, but i'm betting/ hoping
that a good portion of them say "we're in it for the tax write off - and nothing more"
in short regardless of the cause, we lent you the money, if you didn't get a result fuck you!
you're not entitled to the tax break for as long as we are and no more.
cheers bill, whatever problems you caused, we're really grateful you chipped in with your help.

Surely we should be nuking this guy back to the stone age? Pesky axis of evil and their neuclear threats.
