Greetings for February!

Weeeelll, I figured it was about time to MAKE the time to come back and post a station update in the blog; there've been a lot of changes, upgrades, improvements, etc. to make to the station itself lately, and I've been very busy focusing on those technicalities as time permits to keep PLANET ZEB! sounding as good as it can sound. Those of you who've been with the station for a while know that I'm an audio guy/radio veteran FIRST, and "webmaster-type-guy" SECOND (or third or fourth or... grin). But by the same token, the Geo Statistics and Top 10 Tracks needed updating-- and I've got a free moment to check in and say hello, so here ya go. :)

Please remember to keep those emails coming; the only meaningful way I have of communicating with YOU and other listeners for whom the station really exists is through that medium! And I love getting every bit of feedback I get about requests, music, song selection, playlists... heck, I even like just hearing who you are and where you're from and how you found the station and on what platform/directory you listen. PLANET ZEB! is still serving its mission to be the internet's best COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT 80s/90s-based rock and popular music station.... fulfilling the promise of radio in its pre-corporate conglomerate life (when I was in it) of giving a damn about listeners and trying to entertain them rather than trying to trim "home office"-mandated narrow playlists to maximize profits.

And on THAT note, please let me remind you that I foot the bill for the entire operation-- music, bandwidth, advertising, promotions, royalty payments-- the whole proverbial ten and a half yards. It's a lot easier to do when kind folks like you contribute what you can to help shave a little off of my monthly personal expenses. Anything from a dollar to a gazillion dollars helps MEANINGFULLY-- so would you please check out the secure PayPal donation links on the planetzeb.net or planetzeb.com home pages RIGHT NOW, and donate whatever you can afford? I'm seriously not into high-pressure sales or donation-getting tactics; never have been. Just not my style, and as you know, I"m here to run a radio station and enjoy and share licensed, legal music with you-- not to turn a profit on PLANET ZEB! (if THAT were the case, it would have gone away back in.... ooohhhh... early 2003 or so!).

But even your modest contributions help. TOGETHER, they can make a REAL difference. So many listen from around the world, and so few donate. My very deep thanks to those of you who've helped in the past, and thanks for your support, friendship and patronage! PLANET ZEB! is here to rock on for YOU.... around the clock and around the world!
