Astral Media (owners of Crave) bought the rights to use the name "Virgin" 953 from Virgin Radio International gaining access to a lot of their features and countdowns from the UK. This is the second Virgin radio Astral has launched in Canada. There is Toronto's Virgin 999 and over the weekend the flipped 2 more stations to Virgin in Montreal and Ottawa Quote:

He has nothing in Vancouver other than borrowing Bell's network to run Virgin Mobile. Virgin Megastore downtown was a failed experiment. He realized he couldn't compete with HMV anywhere in Canada, sold it to them and left the country entirely. Plans to build one in Toronto has now turned into an Adidas store

I switch on and off from 1040 and my music

you know it's strange that our radio stations seem to have a turnover of a few years until they eventually change names and target demographics.
most cities' radio stations manage to hang around for the most part. i guess that says a lot about vancouver's radio market

Unless it's 99.3, I don't listen to any local radio. Even then, I'll only listen to the Jeff O'Neil Morning Show and History of New Music segments. The rest of the time Ipod and USB control on my car stereo is good enough for me.

Shitty deal for us thanks to the CRTC.
I miss it too. |
