 In the summer of 2007, the series owner MediaBay announced the company would be going out of business in September of that year and the show was subsequently purchased in September by a group headed by Norton Herrick, former CEO of MediaBay, Inc. (the company that had purchased Radio Spirits, and thus "When Radio Was", back in 1999).The company has since changed ownership again in 2008, and is now owned by the former Radio Again (although the company retains the name Radio Spirits).As of 2011, "When Radio Was" appears on over 200 stations in the U.S., as well as one Canadian station, CHPQ-FM in Parksville, British Columbia.
