I remember a while ago I heard of a Web site which tracked what songs were played on which radio stations when. E.g. you put in 99.9 in New York on September 9 afternoon, or whatever, and it would tell you all the songs played on 99.9 during the afternoon of September 9. It was good but somewhat incomplete. I can’t remember what the name of the site was. Does anybody have any clue what I’m talking about?

I’m thinking [http://mediabase.com](http://mediabase.com) but I’ve never been inside. I know someone who has posted some information from in there, and it was usually things like how many spins a song got, et cetera. I don’t know if it would have what you’re looking for.

Nope, that wasn’t it. This one was far more consumer- (rather than industry-) oriented, and didn’t need any kind of account to access it. Anybody have any other ideas?
