You can’t compare abc to Sen, 3aw play just as many ads..
they can only play a certain amount per hour anyway..

I would love to see this investigated, as it feels like SEN really push the boundaries.

If you break down the regular commercial breaks, then the live-ad reads, the 2-5 second grabs that are sneaked in before all news and traffic reports (along with the ads during the reports) and the constant brand-names dropped into conversation, then I'd be staggered if this is on par with regulations.

Exactly right. The typical ad time during breaks seem par for course for radio. It's all those extra sponsorship mentioned in program that has increased significantly under hutchison.

I've timed the content:ad ratio a handful of times on SEN and 3aw, painstakingly editing out every ad and each little sponsor mention. There's always a bit more content than I expect; it just seems like there are more ads because it's so annoying, especially the live stuff, and extra especially when Dwayne Russell does it. Ugh, he sometimes shts on about his visits to Werribee Kia for what seems like a couple of minutes, and he says it so slowly. He'll fit right in at Crocmedia.

SEN always has slightly more content than 3aw.
However, I've noticed that the SEN news breaks are going a litter longer, due to an extra ad or 2, so I might time/edit another hour. Also, the ad-breaks on SEN breakfast sometimes go just over 5-and-a-half minutes, then Lyon mentions another sponsor straight after.
I have no life. Ha :D

With the footy season coming to an end, I'm looking forward to hearing trade rumours and teams that will bolt next season. Also the sides who will fall by the wayside. Geez I'm sounding like Heverin by the day...
 
I watched some of the NFL this morning on Ch 73 for the first time in a few years. Have they shortened the stoppage time between plays? It was much snappier than I remember. It wasn't too bad.
 
Ok, someone humour me. :D I just edited the hour of the SEN breakfast show between 7am and 8am and, cutting out the ads, news, little bits of music, and every time Garry talks mentions sponsors. There's 36 minutes and 37 seconds of content, which is still slightly more than 3aw. Note: the last ad-break of that hour was 5 mins 47 secs!!
 
Interesting. Thanks. I'll try to catch more of it next week. Spewin' it's not in HD. I used to like watching bits of it on 1HD a few years ago, partly because of the HD, but also because, like most other world sports, they're not obsessed with switching from extreme close-ups to long-shots, like the AFL broadcasters are. Fair dinkum, sometimes footy is shot like a shaky-cam action movie. :D
 
I also edited the hour between 8am and 9pm of the breakfast show. Cutting out everything, along with Nathan Brown's betting spot/ad, there's 33 min and 37 secs of content. However, that includes a couple of minutes of people calling up with their Frank Walker impressions which, of course, is another ad in disguise.
By the way, don't get me wrong, I still like SEN. ;) :thumbsu:

It's terrible. Instead of footy nearest to the pin they are going to 'the best ROBOT Building Supplies voice challenge'.
 
yeah,didnt you know disney entertainment are part owner of the NFL...LOL..back at ya

You couldn't even be bothered with a cursory google before posting something that is demonstrably wrong to try and prove an idiotic point?

Get the **** out of here.
