A few years ago some dude contacted 'xdu  about this playlist service.  He 
said they had some  sort of  attenae in S. Durham (or somewhere) that  
listened to a   bunch  of triangle radio stations and a computer would   
recognize songs in their database.  They would sell the info to  record 
labels (or CMJ?) so they could 'really' track  what  stations were playing..  
He wanted 'xdu to send them CDs that we  were playing or get bands to send 
them CDs so they could expand thier  database.  Obviously no one helped 
them.. 
  My guess about the Run DMC being high on the 'xdu list is that there  may 
be some song with a Run DMC sample on it (Or a drum beat similar to  what 
they sampled) and the computer thinks its a Run DMC song.. but  idunno..

That is pretty neato.. but a cursory look at the WXDU playlists reveals that 
they do not have most of the music we play in their data base.

  Our  number 2 album is not RUN DMC..  I think this service listens to a  
station over the air and a computer recognizes the song if it is in  their 
database.  
  
  WXDU does have online playlists on the site.

  sorry for the messy link.  OR just go  to wxdu.org
  
  I believe WXYC, WKNC and probably the other stations you mentioned have  
their own online playlists on their websites.  So you can figure  out what 
was played probably with much more certainty than this yes.com  thing..

via this site.  I was disappointed not to see WUAG or, my alma mater, WQFS.

I'm not a huge iTunes fan but, as I continue to lose brain cells at an 
alarming rate, it'll be
nice to have a quick answer to those increasingly frequent "who was 
that?" moments.

This is such an insane business plan. It's not a mystery what commercial 
radio plays: the same thing, over and over. The companies that would pay 
for that info just spend the money to payola the stuff into the 
playlists. *Whats really being played* is whatever they want to be 
played. And for non-commercial radio, the task of assembling a useful 
database would be like making a snowflake-comparison archive. It seems 
like manually setting up a custom slurp 'n' parse script for every 
college station's playlist page would be easier.

Still, a hypnotizing flash map of the USA on the front.
