Coupla responses from PRX site editor (Score 4, Informative)

While our tech guys are desperately trying to deal with a spike in slashdot-driven traffic, I'm going to try to answer some questions and dispel some rumors.

1. PRX does not distribute music. As you all know, this is a sticky subject and thus conveniently outside of our brief.

2. As befits a publicly-funded site, anyone can listen to pieces and offer a review. We encourage it. Like the great Soviet enterprise we are, we demand it. Submit.

3. It is possible to believe strongly in both public radio and the free market. They are not mutually exclusive, nor is public broadcasting the sole province of liberals.

4. PRX is not Internet radio. We use a web platform to allow nonprofit radio stations to browse for content that they can license, download and broadcast.

5. We're in the midst of rethinking how parts of the site work, particularly the search function and reviews/moderation. We welcome comments. The relationship between the popular vote and the judiciary may or may not be germane to this discussion but hey, it's your Constitution too.
