My radio station is trying to drive me insane

I know, it's a short trip, but man.

While I'm working, I listen to Jack FM here in Dallas because they don't have DJ's and I get to hear mostly music. 

I found out a while ago that they had separate feeds for their on-air and web broadcasts and naturally, they had different commercials.

Well, on Friday, they synchronized their broadcasts into what appears to be a single feed.  Good for them.  Bad for us.

You see, their advertisers didn't pay for Internet users and whenever they are playing a commercial on the air-broadcast, they will substitute theme music from television shows, since they both seem to fit into that 30 second time slot.

Now this may not seem like a big deal, but do you have any idea what it's like to hear theme music roughly every 12-15 minutes for several hours? Day after day?

If they don't change this sometime soon, I'm going to have to go to XM or something.
