A new article in the Toronto Star gives an upbeat report about the programming that is replacing the old classical format at Canada’s CBC2. But be sure to read the comments at the end of the article. Now where should the Canadians go for their classical music?

Something went wrong.
The answer is pretty obvious, the internet where there is no end to the choices. Of course, for some it will not be an option, depending on where they are when they want to listen. But the internet is the last best hope for Classical Music on the “radio”
I just tried to load this comments page as an RSS feed and nothing happened. I of course have my feed aggregator open, and in the past, the feed would just load and aI would elect to keep it.
I see that you have at least a new interface today, maybe something is not quite right.
I recommend to my students and colleagues the Toronto Symphony Orchestra’s Beethoven on Demand service, which gives members full access to the Naxos Music Library in return for receiving TSO updates. Here’s the url:

Richard: Yes, it looks as if something is not quite right with the comments RSS. I use Google Reader, and when I click on RSS icons, I’m taken to a window prompting me to add the feed to Google Reader. That didn’t happen this time. I’ll see if we can sort this out.
The comment RSS feed should now be active and functioning normally. Thanks for pointing out the glitch. ~ Drew McManus
