Yes, local radio stations are a huge market.
Not sure why they are "corny" lol
But yeah, get in touch with one of your big local radio stations to buy some ad time and you'll quickly find out how many people definitely listen to local stations.
I had XM and then Sirius for about 10 years. But I finally dropped it about 4 years ago because I found myself constantly checking the local stations to hear the traffic reports and ads for the local shows and bands in town.
Plus I just like the local "flavor" of the stations right here in Vegas.
I liked having satellite radio too. Especially when I lived on the East Coast and drove all over the place.
But now that I live in Vegas...I don't drive out of town that much (usually fly out). So the advantage of never losing the signal from Sirius just didn't mean much anymore.
