[Introspective] Final results of poll on how often you hear PSB music on the radio

[Wayne Studer]

The final results are in for my survey this past week, in which I asked 
my site visitors about how often they hear Pet Shop Boys on the radio 
these days. And the response that received the most votes was:

* "I never (or hardly ever) listen to the radio," picked by 35.9% of the 
voters.

Of those who do listen to the radio, a plurality (21.3%) said that they 
hear PSB music "Maybe once every two or three months."

To see the complete results, please visit my "Commentary" site at 
http://www.geowayne.com/psbhtml.htm and select one of the "Past Survey 
Response" options in the top navigation bar or click the appropriate 
link on my "What's New?" page.

My new poll for the week ahead was inspired by an interview I heard on 
the radio several days ago in which a high-finance entrepreneur was 
talking about how his company was negotiating with several pop music 
artists to develop arrangements whereby they will offer "shares" or 
"bonds" on their past and/or future output, essentially enabling people 
to "invest" in their careers. The artists would receive a large upfront 
payment from this public offering, and the investors could with time 
possibly reap huge rewards from the dividends of their investment -- or, 
of course, as with any investment, they could lose their shirts, never 
earning back what they had invested. So this made me wonder how many PSB 
fans might be willing to "invest in the Pet Shop Boys" in this way. 
Would you be interested if the Boys were to engage in such an 
enterprise? So please mull this over and, when you're ready, make your 
choice from the options listed right there on my home page.

Thanks to everyone who voted in last week's survey! And I hope you all 
have a very profitable week ahead!
