Why is Top40 radio more like Top10 radio now?

Yeah, Top40 music sucks in general, but every time I switch it to a top 40 station I'm pretty much guaranteed to hear one of the same 10 songs that are on the rotation. It's like they're just advertising the songs that make the top 5 list every evening, and don't bother to play anything else. This is a shame, because while the top 10 songs are usually complete shit, there's often some decent songs which make it somewhere around #30 that never get played. Several Weezer songs were like this, and the only one that ever got bothered to be played on the radio was Beverly Hills, which was one of their worst songs, but got a lot of airplay because it cracked the top 10.

I think it's stupid to be affiliated as a Top40 station (one that does the, you know, actual Top40 on Sundays) and only play the top 10 songs on that list. I know this is an exaggeration, because sometimes they'll play other stuff or even some older Top40 songs, but this is rare.

I get tired of hearing what I refer to as "club music", because it's not really hip hop, it's not really rap, it's just dumb songs about getting boners and grinding on bitches in the club. Or in Kesha's case, wearing Jesus on your neck a les us us us usssszzzzz. That's good music for when you're in the club, but Jesus Christ it gets annoying as fuck on the radio.
 
I only listen to xm/sirius and even that is not that good. Regular radio is total trash, except for AM.

What are you smoking ?

Sirius xm is the shit.

backspin, lithium, area, hip hop nation, shade 45, best of 80's, best of 90's and NFL radio. Those stations alone mean there's always some great song or program on at any time

I haven't even bothered exploring half the channels in the two years ive had it in my car because that set keeps me occupied.
