Uma relação diferente com a música (personalizar e 'cauda longa')

(um exemplo de como o comportamento da geração iPod - os seus hábitos, os seus comportamentos - vai influenciar a definição de um novo tipo de consumo, o consumo activo; no caso, ao não encontrarem na rádio as musicas de que gostam, procuram onde isso é possivel)

«Too much repetition, not enough new music. Any programmer knows that if you cut the playlist and play the hits, your ratings will go up. But with this generation it is different. They really do like obscure songs. Many are so anti-repetition that they will just walk away from it. Some can't understand why radio stations insist upon telling them that they play the greatest variety when the playlists are so obviously short. This is a deal breaker with the next generation» COLLIANO, Jerry del, Gen Y Consults Radio Inside Music Media, 14/04/08
