		<description>Some do...  

Most hit music, hip hop and some country stations do it.  Usually the songs are 2% or 3% faster.

The practice dates back to the birth of top 40 radio.  Some program directors thought the music sounded brighter or happier when sped up.  

I&#039;ve worked in radio for 17 years.  Every hit music station I&#039;ve worked at has pitched the music 2%.  One hip-hop station did 3%.

As a side note, I own a Houston DJ service and usually speed up my music by 2% so it matches the local radio stations.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;http://www.awesomeproms.com</description>

		<description>Sometimes the artist does a song just for the radio stations to play.  It is really stupid. I hate hearing a song on the radio and loving it, than go to buy the CD and the lyrics and beat is a little off.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
