Generally they broadcast what people want to hear, and unfortunately youth culture has reduced itself to a very narrow music preference. Usually people really into music don't listen to mainstream radio because of the selection, and so it leaves the people who casually listen to it. So it's a catch 22, and it's mostly youth demanding solely gangsta rap, R&B/pop/whatever you want to call it/ classic rock/ pop punk. It's sickening. Plus most people are turned off by insturmental music now because they can't take the time to suit the music to a mood and atmoshere, so they go for whatever's the most accessable. I guess it's good in a sense for people not heavily involved in music, because it provides something that's easy for them, although it doesn't change my opinion that it's sickening.
