I agree, it does "seem" like a public service, but they do not get funding like public radio stations do to support programs that reach a small audience.   Even though XM and Sirius claim to offer great choice, they will drop a format if it is not proving sucessful.

Unfortunately internet radio can't be picked up in cars, but I do see people cancelling subscriptions. Unfortunately there won't be enough people cancelling to make any difference. The thing to do is to write e-mails NOW which helps show their management that people are supportive of the station.

And let's hope that Bob Dylan's show does not disappear. He brings ears to that channel.
