Is BBC 6 Music actually worth saving? - The Independent

Is BBC 6 Music actually worth saving?: "

I have listened to BBC 6 Music a fair amount over the last eight years and enjoyed the programmes hosted by talented, natural broadcasters like Gideon Coe, Stuart Maconie and Marc Riley, and raconteurs such as Elbow frontman Guy Garvey, Huey Morgan of Fun Lovin' Criminals and, more recently, Jarvis Cocker. But I also cringed when listening to the hapless Jane Gazzo and turned off completely during the dreaded George Lamb's tenure as a 'female-friendly' chatterbox. Somehow, the station never felt distinctive enough to induce much loyalty on my part. I also knew too much about the way 6 Music was run.
