Tastes differ in different markets so the show is tailored to local markets by counting down the top ten most requested songs in each market. How then does Clear Channel then simultaneously broadcast different lists with different between song patter but with the same host? Easy. They've created a Carson Daly voice database and their technicians construct his intros and background by assembling voice snippets. <small>(via <a href="http://www.arstechnica.com/">ArsTechnica</a>)</small> tag:metafilter.com,2003:site.23312 Tue, 04 Feb 2003 11:34:55 -0800 Carson CarsonDaly ClearChannel Daly localmarket massmarket radio radioshow TimeFactor
