oh, absolutely. That was a major contributing factor (and the direct reason I lost my job - the station realized it could save money by going satellite instead of having local DJs). I simplified it for the sake of a comment but it really was a perfect storm of this shift to canned, packaged satellite radio stations finally having the technology to fake being local rising at the same time that downloading and streaming music began to gain a good technological foothold. It isn't so much that a megacorp is telling the jocks what to play, it's that there is one single radio station in Cali or Texas or something piping music (ironically, over the internet) to the local affiliate. The tags mentioning your local station's call letters? Pre-recorded and computer-inserted. Just like TV, really.

I haven't tried spotify personally but like OP I've used what are basically online radio stations and I do like that there's some radio-like feel to them. Pandora with ads can't really do the same because once you get locked into an artist or genre, there's less variety than a hits station.
