This is just another reason, in a long list of good reasons, why we need the SU now more than ever.  I was counting on the afternoon replays and now it doesn't look like I will be able to listen at all.  There needs to be a way to make the shows accessible by download and I'm willing to donate any amount of time, money, or energy to see that it happens.  If I had the option, I would rather take the money I was planning on spending on an XM subscription and put it towards an underground podcast.  Bring back the AOL account.  Revive the SU.  We need it now more than ever.

This is really shitty news, especially for people who were looking forward to hearing R&F in the evenings, like previously reported. First, only a 3 hour shift, and then this -but hey! At least they aren't on the same station as Don and Mike, which is what's really important - even if that station did free internet streams. /sarcastic.I am still very happy for R&F because they weren't being treated very well by Infinity, but as someone who has had more than one employer, I know that the unknown can be just as bad as the known sometimes. This better not be the case. Since they are gambling more here than O&A or XM, R&F deserve to be treated better. quote: email logan... he usually responds as soon as he can... he has answered many of my qustions in the past...  eric.logan@xmradio.com   Fuck him.

Audible.com is not really a viable option and I don't know why people keep suggesting it.  It costs $3 for every show that you download.  The monthly and yearly subscriptions only allow for a certain number of downloads and it certainly wouldn't cover 5 shows a week for a month or a year.  The other problem I found after I purchased the AFRO show from 8/9 was that it's difficult to download and even harder to put it on my ipod.  It doesn't come in MP3 format so you can't just listen to it on your music player.  You have to download patches and different formats for different uses.  I really looked into this option because it seemed a lot more attractive than XM's offer.  At least I could archive the shows.  But based on my experience and what I found out about their subscriptions, it's just not worth it.

If you had copied the entire post instead of cutting out the middle, you might have noticed that there are other reasons why Audible is a shitty option.  I don't know if you've purchased any periodicals from them (O&A and R&F are classified as periodicals) but it makes it very difficult to listen to the shows.  It's not like purchasing and downloading an MP3 ready to play on your Window Media player.  It requires different software that causes problems for me and it's way too much work to transfer it to an ipod.  As for the money, $3 a show would be somewhere in the ballpark of $600-$700 dollars a year.  Get real!!!

It was pretty obvious from his original comment, in context, that he was willing to go in with others and help do something - to help share the load, not bring the full thing on himself. Ron and Fez very well may be worth $1 per hour, but at the end of the month a fan is paying more than he would for cable television.

You should still recognize, however, that many of us are in a worse situation now than we were when the show was on the air in WJFK.  Whether it's the money, or the time slots, or the equipment, or the person's schedule or whatever, it's fucking a lot of us up right now and I, for one, am concerned that I won't be able to listen once they move to XM.  Just realize that many of us are now faced with the same fears and concerns that all of us felt after they left New York.

I hesitate to even bring the idea up -- but if O&A got a
shitload of calls from the minions on this, I doubt they would ignore
it. They'd probably talk about the replay situation on the air. That or
they would be 100 percent hypocritical after tooling on other radio
shows for not going with the "attack" callers.NOTE: This was not
a suggestion, and I do not want to speak for R&F.net, its admins or
its posters since I'm a relative newbie.

 Oh yes, we should all just be thankful we can breathe the same air as R&F, blah blah blah. If you're not with us, you're against us. The
fact of the matter is the timeslot/replay schedule fucking sucks and if
there's enough of a backlash, maybe something will change. Of course
I'm happy R&F will still be broadcasting, but that doesn't mean we
should just bend over and allow XM to shove Ben's hog up our collective
asses.

don't delude yourself if you do go the SU route that you aren't hurting
the show.

This thread is veering too close to Brian Regan retard voice This is not what I'm used to!  for comfort.Yes, for fans that don't have a lot of extra $ lying around this isn't optimal and I feel badly about that.  But I don't understand how following the live O&A show for three hours on a nationwide platform is a dis to R&F.Yes, it's disappointing if you were a fan who contributed to the show in the past if you can't be on air anymore, but as has been said by others in the thread R&F have decided this is best for them. And as long as we have an opportunity to enjoy them, even if it isn't live, we can't complain too much. Or shouldn't anyway.

I think that this situation is clearly temporary. If you remember, the hard thing to figure out was keeping the boys together to do AFRO shows and giving them the night slot. Yes OPIE does want to be in afternoon on both coasts but that won't prevent R&F from going to 7-11 on the east coast eventually. Which is where I believe they will end up. My feeling about them only doing a three hour show is so they could come in an hour early at first, and give us some AFRO hours. It will all work itself out. Let's keep celebrating for now.

One more thing:Ron and Fez made a CHOICE to go to XM.  They weren't forced off Infinity.  They weren't fired.  They came to the end of their contract or they made a release offer, and it was accepted.Do you SERIOUSLY think Ron and Fez made this choice without weighing all the options?  Knowledged One, your "fools gold" ticket comment was probably one of the STUPIDEST fucking statements I've ever read on this entire board, and when you look at the catalog of posts j3helane makes, THAT'S impressive.You guys are complaining about the time slot... well, if they didn't take that time slot, then you get no interaction between the two shows, which leads to good radio.  I'm not leading the push for AFRO 24/7, but we know that the four of them work well together.I need to walk away from this, you Charlie Complainers and Nancy Neighsayers are getting me all Allen Agitated.

quote:  quote: Audible.com is not really a viable option and I don't know why people keep suggesting it. It costs $3 for every show that you download. The monthly and yearly subscriptions only allow for a certain number of downloads and it certainly wouldn't cover 5 shows a week for a month or a year.  You are wrong. The yearly subscription is for every show, every day, not a limited amount of downloads. If it's the same rate as O&A it would be $70 a year, which would average out to less than one dollar a show. HBOX & SKW - you guys are 100% right and I apologize for the confusion.  I called Audible.com a few days ago to speak to their sales staff about subscription options and someone informed me, at the time, that I would be limited to 2 downloads a month if I went with their monthly subscriptions.  This information was obviously incorrect because I just called them back and they confirmed that they have a monthly periodical subscription that sends you the shows every day.  This changes everything for me and I retract my previous complaint about Audible's pricing.There still remains many problems for me because I have a 20 gig Sony Network Walkman instead of an iPod and it uses SonicStage instead of iTunes.  Audible does not support this device and so I'm stuck with listening on my computer.  I'm sure if I had an iPod like everone else, it wouldn't be as big of an issue. But that's just something I'm willing to work around as long as the price is right.

It's ok to steal from WJFK but not XM?hypocrites.  Are u telling me WJFK makes more money than XM? so It won't hurt WJFK?Feeds were for people who did not have the ability to hear the show right?There are still going to be a lot of people unable to hear the show due to money or whatever..So those people don't count? but the NYC crybabys who went apeshit over the move to WJFK and listened to the streams were justified in stealing the show?

You missed the point Perry... When they were on WJFK: A) They were on regular radio, which is FREE to begin with. B) You either listened on WJFK, or NOTHING. So SU was there to provide a CHOICE. The choice is there now. NY listeners CAN GET XM. It's available. C) WJFK doesn't lose money from streaming. It was an advertising issue and it was eventually worked out and toward the end of R&F's stint, you could actually listen to them worldwide online for free. Most commercial radio stations WANT to provide a legal stream. XM, on the other hand, does not.

Many people can't listen to them. And they are in this slot so Opie and Anthony can be heard in East coast morning AND afternoon drive.I'm

Great.  Here we go AGAIN.  Full fucking circle.  It's back to money again.  "Oh, just get this gadget and record the show" or "Oh, just pay for the shows at some website."  Well you know what, as someone who just settled on the online subscription, and someone who was heavily weighing his options with the Roady2, those expensive options are horse shit at best.I had SETTLED on the notion that a replay would be worth 8 bucks a month, but I wasn't happy.  Now I get Ron and Fez during work when I can hardly listen or while I'm fucking sleeping?  Gay.  Plain gay.They may get a whole new, great, HUGE audience with this new XM deal and since I love the show I really wish them success, but it looks like a few old fans won't be along for the ride.  This is my forum to express my disgust in that.

was just giving alternatives to stealing the show. That's mostly what
this thread has evolved into. SU with the XM show is not the same it
was with the JFK show.And, if R&F do get their shows on
Audible, it would be the same price as an XM subscription with a
monthly subscription or cheaper if you got a yearly subscription. And
you wouldn't have to buy any hardware to listen to the show, and since
you have an iPod you can listen with that.And don't bash me, I'm
not making any kind of judgements, just giving you an option. If you
want to mope and bitch more than finding a legal way to listen to the
show just tell me and I won't bother anymore. I'm just trying to help
people find ways to listen to the show.EDIT:
Let me rephrase this a bit. People are giving options as to how to
listen to the show at night. If you say "I don't want to spend that" or
"I can't afford that" fine, I can't make any judgements on how you can
or want to spen your money. But if you are going to bash people just
for offering options, I think you'd rather be bitching.

I didn't ask HBOX fucking anything, so don't respond to me like I was talking directly to you.You know, I'm tired of this.  Chasing Ron and Fez around is getting tiresome.  Honestly.  Pay this, download that.  I don't want the S.U.  I and just about anyone else could have had it over and over again for years, and it will be a reality when they start XM too, but I don't even want it.  I'm just so tired of this. Plus, I'm so tired of the attack dogs banging anyone with a differing opinion right up the ass with a gang prison rape of tired comments.  It's different opinions that make this place work.

The reason why radio stations don't stream is a matter of money, but not the way you think.There is a union called AFTRA.  Everyone who voices an ad in a radio commercial belongs to AFTRA, for the most part.When streams for radio stations started popping up in the late 90's, AFTRA got involved because they wanted their voice talent getting an extra cut of money from commercials on the stream.Because the technology wasn't there yet to separate the commercials from the music/talk portions, and the RIAA was getting involved with the music stations, a lot of stations took away the streams because they didn't want to lose money (which they would) on a stream.Now the technology with Audiovault and Scott Systems has gotten to the point where the streams can switch on and off from the "regular" commercials, which is why you hear 8 zillion PSAs on the WJFK streams - because you don't have to pay for those commercials.And Perry, you're wrong.  XM is readily available, but it's a pay service.  Going back to the old cable argument, you can't "steal" NBC (or WJFK) but you CAN steal HBO (or XM).

No....because it's possible to GET XM wherever you are in the continental U.S.When I lived outside DC, I COULDN'T get WJFK.And
WJFK makes its money by selling ads. I listened to those ads. XM makes
its money by subs. You are STEALING content from XM/R&F

As a lurker, and a fan from the NY area, I gotta agree that from my
selfish point of view, this sucks.  I want to support the show,
but as I see the schedule, I believe I'm supporting the network, not
the show.  I'm buying gear and paying extra for the ability to mp3
the show.  I suppose that helps R&F indirectly.  Like
Moe, I'm just growing tired of the effort.  I think they're the
best thing going, today...but I have a life, and a budget, and it's
just getting too damn complicated.  Give me a simple, reasonable
internet solution, where I pay a few bucks a month and can listen to
MP3s at MY convenience, I think that's fair.  But another round of
begging the suits to do what's obvious.....christ it's getting
old.  Buddays... c'mon, make it easy for the regular guys...

All of you simply do not get it.SU is a great marketing tool.  If somebody doesn't have XM, it's a great way to expose people to the shows and turn them on to what they're missing on XM.SU is also a good way to catch up on what you missed.BUT - if you are not an XM subscriber, and you're abusing SU, then you are simply a thief.  There's nothing hypocritical about feeds from WJFK and feeds from XM.   It's like comparing apples and oranges.Are you missing the point that maybe one of the MAIN reasons that Ron and Fez went to XM is that their ENTIRE fanbase could easily listen to them?  And if you can't listen to the show live, there's plenty of ways to listen on a tape delay basis.SU is a good tool.  But it shouldn't be abused by people who are too fucking cheap to pay for XM.  If you can't handle 44 cents a day with a 100 dollar base investment, then you should manage your money better.And Moe, I'm not trying to draw you into this, my fight is mainly with perry.  I know you were hedging on XM to begin with, but Perry is just being a dick.

dont think so. WJFK gives out its service freely to anyone in the DC
area. XM is a pay service always and everywhere. All the radio
underground did was ADD listeners, which if JFK/Infinity had any brains
they would want, not discourage. And Tenbats is 100% right, the only
reason they didn't stream is they didn't think it was profitable. Kinda tough to steal something thats given away for free.

Before I read thru the slurry of posts,here's a short term solution to
listen to O&A,perhaps later R&F.Google the "XM radio free 3 day
trial",and supply a working email.If you smartly time it to 7-8-9 am/start during show time in
the morning,then on the third day you won't get cut off at exactly in
the middle of show,but I guess at the end of a show,so really 4
mornings worth of show and replays all day so far,back to
back. Just rotate emails so if you find
INBOX.COM you can change the email addy and just keep applying for the
3 day free trial.

The  happy face side of me says O&A are pragmatic and realize
that limiting R&F to slots out of their listeners convenience will
need a remedy,which is logically to use new channels.Stern will get 3
channels to program.Of course O&A will have that option to compete
that the stuffed shirts at XM will realize automatically....get it

That E.Lo mod quote is freaking me out. But as I said before we shouldn't freak out until things are confirmed. And as you say, let things settle a bit. The channel is always evolving.It doesn't make sense for the plan to be Live O&A 7am-11am, Live R&F 11am-2pm, then replays of O&A until 2 in the morning. It should make sense to have one of the shows in afternoon drive (3pm-7pm or 4pm-7pm) and the other at nights (7pm-10pm or 7pm-11pm) I'm sure if this isn't the plan, and if Ron and Fez don't get better placement on another channel that they would eventually want to have a better spread of the shows.<a href="http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=202" target="_blank"><img src="http://scripts.cgispy.com/image.cgi?u=skw" border="0" /></a>

The comparison of stealing regular t.v. versus stealing cable t.v. is a good argument.  However, despite the fact that a show like the Simpsons is broadcast over public air waves, it would still be illegal for me to post shows on the internet and invite others to download them.  In my opinion, downloading XM Satelite radio is no better or worse than downloading regular radio, or music or movies or anything else people steal on a regular basis.  I don't see how it affects Ron and Fez and I care as much about the faceless suits at XM as I did about the faceless suits at WJFK.  It's piracy, regardless, and one form of piracy is no more or less noble than another.

I read all the pages and you all misses a huge point: It's not O&A that want to be in drive time on both coasts IT'S XM THAT WANTS THEM THERE!!!! 
That's what Opie was mumbling about when the press release was sent
out.  I distinctly remember him saying "this isn't right, XM told
us that they wanted us in drive time on both coasts."  Another
thing, you do realize that this could be a temporary spot for R&F
right??? maybe when more shows are added they will be placed in a
better timeslot.  And God forbid O&A are allowed to program their own channel!!!!!

Tenbats i was being sarcastic, because in all honesty you did come off rather condescending.And yes i am Anti O&A i have never hid that fact, and i am anti R&F to XM because of the poor timeslot but i am not anti XM as i have the service.  I listen to Dan Patrick every day from 1-4 on XM ESPN Radio.  I will be able to listen to R&F now online at my work.  My comment about fools gold was in reference to them signing with XM and getting a perceived crappy timeslots.  I would never ever begrudge someone taking a new job for more money, because i have left jobs for more money so don't paint me as a R&F hater.  the world is about money and the more you can get the better for you.Tenbats like i said i have no problems with you, i was being sarcastic and its hard to read sarcasm but like i said you came off rather smug with some of your comments.  But to criticize me because i am anti-O&A is unfair its my opinion just like moe posts about hating D&M i do the same about R&F.

Maybe use the SU and send in your $12.95 directly to Ron and Fez (or spilt that money to whatever shows you pirate on XM) But that's not going to go over well with XM Management.<img src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/furious.gif" border="0" /><a href="http://www.xmradio.com/programming/channel_page.jsp?ch=202" target="_blank"><img src="http://scripts.cgispy.com/image.cgi?u=skw" border="0" /></a>

If anything, the people who listen on the underground are mostly likely avid supporters who will spread the word and get people listening.There is absolutly no proof that this point you made is correct in the least.  We all know how easy it is to find free software, music and porn on the net.  The people who search out a S.U. might be avid fans, but they may also just be lazy asses who don't want to pay.  I don't think people who hack Windows XP's registry are avid Bill Gates fans.

I'm not talking about what's good for XM radio.  I'm talking about what's good for Ron and Fez.  I don't think the two are mutually exclusive and I could care less about the suits at XM.  Taking subscription money out of their pockets is the same as taking advertising revenue out of Infiniti's pockets.  Both companies consider it stealing and both companies are negatively impacted by pirated radio.  Either way, it has very little impact on Ron and Fez.  This is like trickle down economics - or maybe trickle down demographics.  FOR THE RECORD - I am getting a subscription next week.  I'm just waiting for the equipment to come through.  But I still don't agree with what everyone's saying.

Infiniti is a corporation that depends on advertising revenue.Their advertising revenue is determined by the number of listeners and their demographics.When people find other means of listening to Infiniti broadcasts, they're "stealing" because they're taking advertising revenue away from the company.  That's why it was illegal and that's why we we all underground.  It may not be as tanglible as it is with XM radio - there isn't a set subscription fee that people are stealing - but it's still piracy and it still has a negative impact on the company.  TThat's why I find it hypocritical when people condone one and bash the other.  No one was sticking up for Infiniti when we were all stealing their broadcasts.  No one was saying that we were hurting Ron and Fez or taking money out of their pockets.  When in reality, your same point can be made about terrestrial radio.  There's a huge double-standard going on here.---insert reply about how it's differnet now because  everyone has the option to listen---<img src="http://s2.imagesubmit.com/t-bonesteak.jpg" border="0" /> "If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about chopping them down?

Serious quesiton...is there a legitimate reason what Opie and Anthony doesn't start live at 6am and do a 6-10 morning show? Is it all about getting one more additional hour of left coast drive time? Because if that was the case, and R&F were still 3 hours:6-10am - O&A 10am-1pm - R&F 1-5pm - O&A replay 5-9pm - O&A replay, again 9pm-12am - R&F - Replay -but now at a decent timeslotOf course, 12-6am is something completely different - maybe a third O&A replay with 2 hours of "worst of" overnights

agreed, even if you are listening to the commercials on the SU feed its illegal. If you were not listening to those commercials you could have been listening to a local infinity station's show and hearing commercials that are geared to your area where your money could go to those advertisers.

Perry is just being a dick. I do have a problem with Tenbats. I am speaking directly to you now bitch. Not once in this thread did I bring up your name or insult you. You called me a dick because you don't like what The Perry said. You fucking begged me to lay off the Tenbats bashing, because you "like" the Turducken song...(wow thanks I can sleep now. U like my song. ) Then you call me a dick when I said nothing to you or about you. You are an insignificant cunt to me. Who obviously loves and needs attention from me. Be careful what you wish for chubby. I've been looking for the follow up to "fatbaby" - if ya feel me. I don't know who the fuck you are... nor do I care. When you insult me, I will fire back. Don't like it? tough shit. Eat me sissy. (this is where the mods enter and tell perry the trouble making flamethrower to cool it for defending himself) First - According to Bob who is the Agent for Ron and Fez, and according to Infinity Broadcasting, and according to <a href="http://www.wjfk.com/" target="_self">WJFK </a>and according to the LAW - it IS stealing when someone other than Infinity is streaming THEIR show. Same with <a href="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/replytotopic.cfm/Forum/46/Topic/46280/currentpage/4/messageid/822307/www.xmradio.com" target="_self">XM</a>. Just because something is "free" doesn't mean it's not stealing. T-Bone made a great point about The Simpsons. Same with the NFL.     All you fuckers who are soooo anti-stream NOW - are the same lame fuckers who were tuning in and kissing our ass for providing the ILLEGAL streams. Yep. Even the<a href="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/replytotopic.cfm/Forum/46/Topic/46280/currentpage/4/messageid/822307/www.perrynoid.com" target="_self"> Perrynoid</a> broke the law & provided an illegal stream. It pisses me off that you guys are this close minded to justify stealing from Infinity but not XM. Stealing is stealing . Tenbats, you sit on your fat ass and jump on people who say shit you don't like to hear. . Now your attacking fans who may not be able to afford XM right now?. What a fucking pathetic loser. Way to make some fans feel part of the group dickhead. This may bring a tear to your eye tubby, but some people don't want to pay 13 dollars a month or even 3 cents a month for the O&A channel. For the people who like R&F but hate O&A, this is a shit deal. Moe doesn't seem to be bitching about the money - but rather the situation. ( and I think he likes both shows - relax Moe I said THINK - I don't speak for The Moe - who's<a href="http://www.unhallowed.com/" target="_self"> band</a> will be interviewed on <a href="http://www.perrynoid.com/schedule/" target="_self">Mikey D's Musical Roller Coaster</a> this Sunday night at 10 on <a href="http://www.perrynoid.com/" target="_self">UFO Radio</a>. They also have a sick new demo called execution style) Tenbats, Do you have the same bills as everyone else? Some people have families unlike you cock breath. Some people have REAL bills and mouths to feed and yes, 13 bucks or even 10 a month is out of their budget. Does that mean they are less of a fan than you? Or that they should not be allowed to hear the show? YOU WERE ONE OF THE FUCKHEADS WHO USED THE FEED. It was OK, for you to use it right? You fucking hypocrite. There are STILL people who are unable to hear the show. For a number of reasons- be it the shit schedule OR the money.

Ok, simmer down, cut the personal attacks and pass the yogurt.As I see it, this is a serious discussion on the ethics of illegal feeds, whether from satellite or terrestrial radio.  I think that's a valid point of discussion, and opinions vary.  This should be a discussion that doesn't devolve into name calling.  From a ronfez.net standpoint, if a feed of XM does happen, rf.net will have nothing to do with it, and no one will be allowed to post any details of said activity on this board.

Perry, are you glad you're all worked up in a froth to scream about this to your fifty or so listeners?  Good.  Glad I got under your skin.  You called me a hypocrite, when since day 1 I explained the differences between a broadcast stream and an XM stream.It's not 13 dollars a month for paying for O&A.  It's 13 months paying for the total platform.  Look Perry, there's no denying you are a creative genius.  I give you massive props on that.  But I think painting everyone here with a brush calling us hypocrites and theives is wrong.WJFK gave us no choice.  It was stream or nothing.  I'm not denying there was shades of grey there.  In the WJFK situation, streaming was "Robin Hood" theft, if you want to call it that.XM gives us a choice.  If you offer a SU stream, then you're no better than some punk who is stealing from the local conveince store.And BTW, Perry... in order for SU to exist, someone has to pay for the feed to begin with.  Who's a hypocrite now?<img src="http://img227.echo.cx/img227/2240/ollie11po.jpg" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.postwhores.net/">Post whores.

And if one more person
plugs this fucking stupid little radio that records shows, they're
getting buried with one.  I am not dropping all that money on a gadget
that record the show so I can hear it later.Yeah,
here's a hint. Not every suggestion is aimed at you. Some people are
actually interested in finding a way to listen.

Here is the problem with the situation. How does this
help R/F get more listeners? If you are recording the show on the MiFI,
it's because you already know it is good. I still think they are a
better fit on Sirius. It is more personality-centric and has NFL
football. C'mon, they could pop up on the NFL channel and be hilarious. 


For example: Kindest Regards, Your Name

but if you get time again PLEASE PARTICIPATE ON XM =Thanks; but I've called in once already to O+A, can't remember for the life of me what it was about, but it was a good call, Opie gave me a 'Thanx, Bro', which beats a 'Good Luck, Bro' a la Peter Jennings, and Steve has played a couple of things I sent in on-air I've sent in; movie audio rips and backing stuff for promos mostly. So I'm still around. Just laying low due to the PC nature of Proffing; or maybe I should say screw teaching and dive in.

Just because I won't drop 200 bucks on some gadget doesn't mean I'm bad with my money.  But that's OK, your argument wasn't really good enough to even stand up on it's own.And Sirius' line up looks like dogshit.  Seriously.  I'm not a XM supporter in the least, read my posts.  It just looks like XM's little brother trying to keep up, and I wouldn't get it.

i say stick with it. i think they will pick up a HUGE buzz, just like they did on WNEW and will eventually be moved to better time slots. don;t forget, 11-3am was their original NY time slot.  i think people will request them at more reasonable time. they will be in morning drive on the west coast, so who knows what will happen to that As for recording it being illegal, i doubt it would be as long as you didn;t share it. but  i agree it is a HUGE pain in the ass to have to worry about it. but nothing beats having the show where you can pause and listen at your leasure, especially when do you not like to miss anything<img src="http://home.comcast.net/~nickcontardo/rfnetjp.jpg" border="0" />  Thanks to Reef for my sig.

Sounds illegal to me, and I

suggestion.  Plus, my audio card sucks.  It's the standard one that
comes with a mid-level computer. Not
illegal at all.  You don't even need to worry about the quality of
your sound card.  The programs mentioned here record from the
SOUND DRIVER they use - you don't even need to have your speakers
plugged in, no need for a line out, and nothing other than these FREE
or NEAR FREE programs.  The one I bought is 12 bucks, don't know
how well audacity does it, but TOtal Recorder can take any sound coming
from your PC, period, and just save it digitally to your HDD. 
Better yet, you can install a free mp3 plugin and have it save directly
to MP3 on the fly.  So you set up your PC with the XM Xamp FREE
program that DOES NOT CUT OUT if you're not at your PC to get your
R&F feed, set it to record for 3 hours, go to bed, and when you
wake up you'll have a nice mp3 of R&F sitting on your hard drive.

several times that he'd have to talk to E-Lo.This is a slap in the face to R&F. 


It's 100% Opie's fault. I
don't think their timeslot is bad, though, but they should have kept
them in the same timeslot they were on in DC and NY at least in replays
just so the fans could follow easily. Opie's designs on the west coast
are misguided anyway. I think R&F would probably do better there in
afternoons than O&A would.

on the brighter side, it sure will be nice to hear a R&F show replay 2am - 5am. I just wish there were more replays offered but - I'm sure things will change in the future. I doubt O&A or XM brought Ron and Fez to channel 202 to ruin their career - or fuck with the R&F fans.

DeathMetalMoe is %100 right. Ron and Fez are the best at what they do.. no matter where or when, they certainly proved that in the past. I'm just glad to have them all over the country!

I mean I'm concerned about their time slot, but I'm not concerned with them getting a following at all.  Theyre just that damn good.  Seriously.  I know I won't get any real opposition saying this on a Ron and Fez fan board, but they are the best radio show I've ever heard and probably will ever hear.  They will get fans, and I hope that helps them have something to use to get a better slot.

Keep in mind that R&F will probably wind up on Audible.com with O&A and Bob Edwards. It only costs $69.99 for the entire year and you can replay it whenever you want. No need to even sign up or buy XM stuff.

It's ridiculous for O&A to use 2 of the best time slots (3-7 and 7-11) for replays while Ron and Fez are stuck in the middle of the day and the middle of the night.  Regardless of West Coast drive time, this is an East Coast show that should be given a decent time for people on the East Coast to listen.  Let's petition XM to give Ron and Fez a station all their own.  Then they could schedule their programs when ever they like (other than 7-11 in the morning) and they could fill the rest of the day with their replays and best ofs.  I would rather listen to this than O&A's show over and over again.

I agree,you have locked in on the best alternative.Stern(Sirius) will
have 3 channels,so XM should at the very least have 2 channels to
compete with the comedy (adult rudeness) brands.If R&F is going to
only be 3 hours per day,it seems 7-10pm on east coast would be most
favorable time for day worker listeners on the second channel(REPLAY

be interesting.Commercial radio has certainly C-Blocked many talented

What do you think would be the best for the Ron and Fez show?  A)  Having their own channel where people can hear them and listen to their best-ofs                                           ORB)  Having a terrible time slot with a repeat in the middle of the fucking nightNot only would this be more enjoyable for the average Ron and Fez listener, it would also attract more people to the show and give people a little background about who they are and what a great show they put on.  As many people on this board have pointed out, it takes a while to really get into a new show and if people can't consistently listen, during time slots that are condusive to listening, they won't get it and they won't listen.  It's as simple as that.  I think they're being given a raw deal at XM right now.  They're the first big show to join O&A and they're not even given a real chance to succeed because Opie and Anthony want to stroke their massive egos and take over the entire station during all the prime listening times.  I can't imagine they're satisfied with the situation right now and if that's the way it's going to be, I think they should be given their own station.  That's just my opinion.

because Opie and Anthony want to stroke their massive egos I realize this is just an opinion, but it is an opinion with no facts to back it up. You have no idea what's going on behind the scenes at XM... it is very likey that Ron and Fez want the spot behind O&A. R&F do not have the following to warrant their own channel... this may change, but for right now you should be happy for them. Again as said earlier... Ron and Fez were let out of their contract at infinty to go to XM. Neither Ron nor Fez are dummies...they know what they are doing.

quote:Opie
on air basically said he wants the show to be on in afternoon drive.
Having 3-7 and 7-11pm replays ensures the Opie and Anthony show play in
afternoon drive in all timezones.  again let me repeat:  XM
wants O&A on both drivetime slots due to the fact that XM wants
O&A to be heard in a good timeslot on the west coast, This has been
mentioned numerous times on their show by both O&A and Eric Logan,
who is in charge of programming of all XM channels!!!!!! People seem to forget that XM has to program with the ENTIRE NATION in mind, not just one area of the country, Hence the replays of O&A all day.  Now they want to add more shows to 202 (WHICH WAS PART OF THE PLAN FROM THE BEGINING!!!)
and people will now have to adapt.  It's tough, but that's
life.  R&F are new to the game of satellite radio, and they
have to accept what they are given.  I'm sure in the future they
will get a better deal as far as a timeslot, but for now they have to
play the hand they are delt.  Do you honestly think R&F didn't
know what they got into as far as timeslots, I'm sure that ther were
briefed on all this before they signed and they accepted the deal,
knowing that there is a possiblity for a better situation once things
are all settled as far as 202 goes (they may end up on 152, NO ONE KNOWS SO STOP TRYING TO ACT LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON!!!) 
  
Look at your jobs, how many have started at their job in
the shift they wanted?  I'm sure some here had some shitty shifts
to work.  I myself jsut started a job where my hours are 4-11pm,
and I have to leave my house at 2 in orcer to get to my job on time. I
hope that in the future that I will get moved to a better shift in
time, but that's in the future.  I have to deal with my situation
now, and not sit there and ponder what is gonig to happen.  This
is what R&F are gonig ot have to do, and they have proven in the
past that they aree able to adapt and thrive in whatever situation they
have been put into, and in the end they were given the best situation
they wanted. 
My point: deal with the situation now to the best of your abilities and eventually things will work out.

I'm not denying the fact that it's great for the Opie and Anthony show.  I just think it's excessive.  And if XM thinks they deserve so much time and bandwidth, then they should be given their own station and they should put new shows like Ron and Fez on a seperate channel where they can grow and succeed.  They deserve better.  And I don't care if they're not as big or as popular as O&A.  They could be if they're given a chance.  This is a Ron and Fez messege board and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, I could care less about Opie and Anthony or Howard Stern or any other show.

Here's my idea, and I know it's flawed as hell.  Here's the schedule I'm thinking about:7-11 am - O&A live11-2 - R&F live2-6 pm - O&A replay6-10 pm - O&A replay10-1 - R&F replay Here's the twist -- during the first week, on Friday morning, R&F could do:a) an "extra" live show (Extra? you ask.  Why extra?  I'll explain that in a minute);b) a "best of" recap of the week's shows; orc) a "history of the Ron & Fez Show" show, hosted by someone like Black Earl, Billy Staples or Perrynoid, featuring clips and bits from old shows. Then, come the time for what would normally be the time for the Friday replay, R&F do the "Night" show -- something that captures the flavors of the dot com overnight show, the WNEW Friday night drinking shows, and the WJFK "Friday Night Lights" shows, with guests, in studio visitors, etc., and maybe Fez would even be up for hitting a local hotspot for a bit after the show like he did in DC.Then, the following week, live shows Mon-Thursday during the 11-2 midday slot, with replays at night.  On Friday, from 11-2, a replay of the previous week's "Night" show, and from 10-1 am, a new "Night" show.Why it works.- It preserves AFRO- It gives O&A the east an west coast afternoon drive slots- It allows the people who love the evening and overnight shows to get that once a week.Why it doesn't work- the master computer, which doesn't allow shows to broadcast after midnight intact.  There really isn't a way around this?  Maybe they could take a brief break around midnight to get everything reset.- R&F might not want to do this- It's still a schedule that gives R&F really limited exposure on the East coast.- It might be too confusing of a schedule for some <img src="http://scripts.cgispy.com/image.cgi?u=mikeyboy" border="0" /> <a href="http://www.osirusonline.com/ronfez.htm" target="blank">Ron & Fez Show Log</a>; Daily News Scratch N' Match is the Devil <a href="http://www.radiobbq.net/" target="blank">The Music Mikey Likes Show on RadioBBQ, weekdays 11:00 am - 1:00 pm</a> Now with new <a href="http://www.ronfez.net/mediastorage/mikey/mikeyshowtheme.mp3" target="blank">theme song</a> by BoBoGolem

you. If its this and nothing else, why not go see if Sirius has

I'm not ready to accuse O&A of having too much to do with the timeslot.  I mean it's the channel they're on, but I don't know if they have as much control over what happens there as they like to let on.  I mean if it's O&A's call, then they really didn't give Ron and Fez a good deal.  If it's more XM, they just don't realize how important it is for Ron and Fez fans to hear them in their original timeslot or close to it.

O&A realize they will never be promo'd by XM(conservative
MAINSREAMERS),so their fans have acted up and done something.I look to
the O&A fans as a model,with street teams and concerted "attacks on
media" (proviso:be smart about it).XM will not promo R&F likewise
(properly/effectively) because they are in the business of selling
"DENTIST MUSIC" or whatever the BELL CURVE will buy.I'm extremely happy
R&F went to XM because it's so much better than commercial
radio.  But,it's no candy store as far as PROMO....and neither was
WJFK.     O&A fans smartly took the
challenge.***Giant Brian got off the sinking WJFK ship and was

not denying the fact that it's great for the Opie and Anthony show. I
just think it's excessive. And if XM thinks they deserve so much time
and bandwidth, then they should be given their own station and they
should put new shows like Ron and Fez on a seperate channel where they
can grow and succeed. They deserve better. And I don't care if they're
not as big or as popular as O&A. They could be if they're given a
chance. This is a Ron and Fez messege board and I think I speak for a
lot of people when I say, I could care less about Opie and Anthony or
Howard Stern or any other show. 
Tbonesteak,it's not
whether you care at all about the O&A or Stern shows..that's your
personal taste.INFORMATION that effects R&F can be learned by
careful listening to predecessors O&A who have been run thru the
mill with some "ABSENTEE LANDLORD" treatment by XM,as "RED -HEADED
STEP-CHILDREN" O&A got Millions to sign,yet promo was noticably
lacking.It's a do-it-yourself solid fanbase backing that supports
O&A,insuring they'll be signed/renewed each year they bring in tons
of subscribers.  Knowing this up front about "XM TREATMENT" allows
R&F fans to adapt to the changes.

What if they replayed ron and fez in a better time slot on a separate channel from 202.  202 is already all o and a all the time anyway.  this way r&f get exposure on 202 and then anyone who wants can catch their replays on a separate channel just plug where you can hear them on 202.

I think we all need to look at this a little differently. Remember: This is not commercial radio. It's not about ratings. It's about subscriptions. I think shows like Stern and O&A were hired because they can bring in massive amounts of subs. Ron and Fez probably can't do that. 1. Alot of NY R&F fans already have XM because they became R&F fans thru O&A from WNEW. 2. They never did big numbers like O&A did. I still believe that R&F fans are more loyal and the subs will be higher than XM believes but it's not my point. I believe that R&F are being added to make the subscribers "Happier". Better overall experience that will keep current subs from leaving when Stern arrives or something like that. XM is very conservative. That's why O&A were on a Premium channel at first. Seperate the audience. Now O&A has won over alot of the XM people and R&F will eventually too. But right now XM wants to improve the channel without pissing off the current subscribers. Most of which are bigger O&A fans than R&F fans. Imagine that 100,000 people from LA are stuck in traffic and are listening to O&A for their 2 hour commute to home. These are die hard O&A fans from the days of them being on in LA in syndication thru Infinity. These people have never heard of R&F before. These people account for $15.6 Million dollars a year. Would you cut these customers off from hearing their favorite show for some show that they never heard of? I wouldn't. I would put the new show on at weird times and slowly work them into the good slots when they notice fans liking them as much as O&A. When that happens they will be providing 8 hours (stepped up from 7) of original programming a day that everyone will enjoy. Can you blame them for being so cautious? I don't. Yes. I too would love Ron and Fez to have their own channel with 24 hour replays but I'm a bit more realistic. When R&F show XM that that is the best way to go, it will definitely happen. Peace.

Producher has it right.O&A have priority because they win big
subscriber numbers and keep them.R&F will prove they can do the
same and get more recognition later.Fortunately O&A & R&F
support each other like a team.It's the reality of their market now to
play it conservatively and go with what works.O&A are setting up
R&F for big "LEAD-IN" ratings at the Morning/Noon/Afternoon
slot.That's the best in the short term,so new listeners are brought on
board.I'm still wondering if Computer subscribers/online will pick
up,compared to car/mobile(buy the radio/initial investment)??? That
remains to be seen.         I'm
pretty sure there will come a solution to the inconveniently timed
replays of R&F.A second or third channel would be the way.But for
many of us who balk at putting a car unit in and carrying something
around,like myself,I think the online streaming will work for more
folks when they make it available for "anytime replays".Call me a
dreamer,but the technology is there to Stream/Store/access anytime.

He's definitely right.  O&A brings 'em in, R&F help keep them there.

Here's another one taking a cue from MB, and grounded in more reality...* Midnight - 4:00am -O&A Replay (9pm-1am west coast) * 4-6am - Two hour worst of (1-3am west coast) * 6-10 am - Opie and Anthony (3-7 west coast) * 10-2pm - O&A Replay (7am-11am west coast) * 2-5pm - Ron and Fez (11am - 2pm west coast) * 5-9pm - O&A Replay (2-6pm) * 9-Midnight - R&F Replay (6-9pm)Why This Schedule Rules:* O&A have three replays during the day * R&F's replay is at an hour Moe will listen to * Who is to say that R&F won't slide in and do a live, Friday night show with their buddies every once and awhile if they are on at a decent hour? (kudos to Mikey for noodling that one through) * It is still within the Midnight boudries so the computer can handle it * R&F get part of the afternoon east coast and west coast drive time * O&A are on mornings on the east coast and west coastWhy Some Will Scoff* O&A will be giving up some of the east and west coast afternoon drive time * R&F are still in middays (even more so now, on both coasts) * With a full four hours between their shows, there would be fewer AFRO opportunitiesWhat Still Annoys Me* R&F are still only 3 hours and one replay.

I still don't understand why ANY show needs 2 fucking replays in the same day on the same station.  Can you name another show with this type of syndication?  It definitely seems unneccesary.  If I was in charge of programming at XM, I would either give O&A their own station and put new shows on a seperate station OR I would have one station for new programming and another station for syndication.  That way, the schedule could look something like:XM202                                          XM???7-11  O&A                                     7-11  R&F Replay11-2  ???                                      11-3  O&A Replay2-5  ???                                        3-7  O&A Replay5-9  Ron and Fez                          7-11  O&A Replay9-12  Hideout                               11-3  R&F Replay12-2  Cosmic Circus                       3-7  R&F Replay2-7  O&A Worst Ofs
