To answer one part of your question on urban radio, I would say that the proximity I spoke of throughout the presentation serves as a common thread. We define ourselves as local radio stations. In an urban setting, this proximity decreases and special interests emerge. Radio stations in the Magdalen Islands will draw a large audience because of geographical proximity and common interests; whereas in an urban setting, specialized programming may target a very specific segment of the population, but may still draw a high number of listeners because of the large catchment population.
