I used to belong to their little music survey thing The Beat Builders where they’d send out emails and you’d rate songs on how much you like or dislike a song and if you’re tired of hearing it played.  It would even play a sample of the song.  A few days ago, they sent out an email to the list with the subject “The BEAT Morning Show Returns to BPM” and explained how by popular demand, the show is coming back.  

A move like this really came as no surprise to me as after giving BPM (the dance station that was on XM) an entire day’s chance of listening, I quickly changed stations.  I came back for a listen a while later and it sounded a lot more like The Beat again.  Awesome.  And then tonight, I got another one of The Beat Builders Survey now called the Sirius BPM Beat Builders.

If anybody from Sirius is reading this.  Good move.  Bring The Beat back.  Mr. Seth too.
