sadly, i dont think christmas music will be played this year in boston!
It will, give it time. They're most likely waiting for Thanksgiving, because starting it right now would seem odd. They must have gotten alot of complaints last year about how early they started, because alot of people I knew where whining about how early christmas music was on.
Don't worry about the Holiday Music popping up on an HD2 for years to come, it would be a stupid move on the station's part, seriously what is the point besides to promote the new technology? Especially if the competition isn't. The better idea is to do it vice versa and continue regular programming on the HD2.
