Chicago media blogger Robert Feder reports that Ira Glass' "This American Life" will switch distributors in July from Public Radio international to the web-based co-op for independent producers the Public Radio Exchange, which distributes its shows by download, including producing Chicago NPR station WBEZ's "Sound Opinions"--for listeners, there will be no noticeable changes other than not hearing the PRI letters and their end-of-show audio logo, while Glass will not be feeding the show live on Friday nights and the stations won't have to take a satellite feed (and no one has to pay satellite fees to NPR, who runs public radio's satellite system)--I wonder if "TAL" segments will now air on PRX's Public Radio Remix, a 24/7 satellite-delivered channel heard on some public radio stations and on Sirius XM (which does air "TAL" on its SXM Public Radio channel):
