The percentages aren't any different now from what they use to be. The difference is that the good stuff now isn't played on the radio much. Over the past 15 years the radio has stopped playing the new and interesting music. They are stuck replaying the same rehashed stuff. This can be directly linked to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which allowed Clear Channel to go and buy up most of the radio market. There are still some hold outs, but they are few. So because of this you have to head off radio to find the great music. If you make the effort there is a huge wealth of great music.
