What I've heard in the last hour on MW is more similar to the 'flashback' stream which is not my cup of tea.
I have never understood (and still don't) what the station hope to achieve by being on MW- great for a bit of nostalgia but I'm sure the increased costs will be hard to bear.
My worry has always been that they will have to compromise their format to meet the new financial pressure and to comply with licence conditions.
It all works very nicely as it is on the internet- I don't want to see it turn into another 'classic gold' station!
Just my thoughts on the matter.
