Demian was talking so slow and slurring that it seemed like he was on some serious drugs. I am not kidding...worth listening to the last 1/2 hour and you'll see or hear !
Actually as amusing as it was to me, I hope he is OK. Sounded like maybe he was on a lot of pain medication !

For some reason I can't get enough of this guy David Bank. I guess it's kinda like looking at a car wreck . . . you know you shouldn't look but you just can't help it.
Here he is once again with Erin Burnett . . . and once again touting Viacom . . . what is it with this guy and Viacom?
It's like he has a one-track mind. Here he is . . . the Enigma himself . . . David Bank

"We have work to do. We actually have to make the digital revolution come to radio," Pittman said, according to Ad Age. "This allows us to get in front of it, not let it happen to us but let it drive us. There are real benefits to the radio business and to our listeners."

Pandora states they don't expect profits through at least 2012, but Spencer knows better than them

Wow, when business journalists write about a topic you know about, you can see how wrong they often are… and thus get worried about what you read on every other topic!
The Pandora IPO story over the weekend was a great example. Some well-known, well-respected publications made the following mistakes:
One top business magazine wrote about Pandora’s “$100 million in profits last year,” because they confusing “revenues” with “profits,” which are actually two different things. (They even got a “confirmation” from Pandora’s Tim Westergren, who only acknowledged that “Things are moving in the right direction,” which they took as a confirmation!)
A major publication wrote about Pandora’s “$100 million valuation,” confusing the amount that the IPO is trying to raise ($100 million) with Pandora’s valuation (not stated explicitly, but probably closer to $1 billion).
A top computer magazine took the fact that Pandora has a majority of the listening among Ando Media’s top 20 webcasters and garbled it into a headline saying that Pandora has a majority of the radio listening in America’s top 20 markets.
And so forth.
As the Boomtown Rats once said, “Don’t Believe What You Read!”
I can't remember who, but I think there was this angry internet-radio-blogger-dude who recently said that "Pandora had already shifted to a subscription model" and would soon gain "50% of their revenue from subscriptions" . . . damn, can't remember who it was that said it but it was on one of those satrad websites . . some guy who's always running around touting internet radio.
