Remember that CRB's World Classical Network satellite service, which
was programmed and voice-tracked entirely by WCRB staff, is used by a
number of other Nassau stations, so unless that service gets closed
down, it doesn't seem like Nassau would save any money by making WCRB
even more generic and voice-tracked than it already is.  (Although I
don't know if WCN was actually included in the sale, I can't think of
any sensible reason why it should have been excluded.)
