    iRadio and the other stations licenced for the 15-34 year old target market do exactly that because its what works.

    Their contract has an obligation to play 50% of music less than 6 months old, 85% of music less than 2 years old and the rest from any time. I'm not 100% if iRadio's is exactly that but it'll be in line with those figures. That's what works for them and reaches their target market effectively

    What would you rather see them do instead?

    They seem to be worse than any of the other stations, I don't know how their djs don't crack up listening to the same music every day. Even if 15-34 year olds like the music they play, im sure they don't want to hear it over and over.

    Rock star by 21 savage is on every day since novemeber.

    I would rather they play songs from different genres and eras.

    They remind me of this guy
