Bummer.  "Curated" -- i.e. hosted -- classical music radio has been on the
general decline for years.  This reminds me of the re-positioning that CBC
Radio 2 has done.

To some extent, classical music radio can be voice-tracked more easily than
other formats since the durations of individual selections often run 10-20
minutes.

Here in the USA nearly all commercial classical music stations are now
non-profit; many use either the "Classical 24" service from Minnesota Pubic
Radio or the "Beethoven Satellite Network" from Chicago's WFMT for much of
their broadcast day.
