Is that Dance Music I Hear on the Radio?...

2004 was a year of up's and down's for dance music in America . We lost dance stations, but gained ones in San Francisco and New Orleans .

With stations venturing into the world of chill out, could the various radio formats be ready to dance again? Has the emergence of Satellite radio and Digital Cable changed the picture? Will the music, the artists and the labels be able to open up the doors at radio outlets or will the music get stuck behind the velvet rope.
