College Radio correspondent Jennifer Waits joins Paul and Eric to examine Nevada Public Radio’s bid to take over programming on UNLV’s radio station. They also look at bankruptcy, acquisition, and shutdown of the streaming music service Rdio, and what that has to do with terrestrial stations. Then Paul discusses why the Appeals Court hearing on network neutrality is important for radio, and Eric ponders rumors that Apple may do away with the headphone jack on iPhones, and how that could impact radio and podcast producers.

In Lasar’s Letter on Radio, Matthew shares his list of locally based classical radio shows and considers the “classical radio paradox” that comes with elitist assumptions about the genre.
