You are still under the erroneous impression that there is an -active-
boycott (and what is happening isn't a boycott, at all) going on.  There is
not.  There is, I say again, no market for it, therefore they won't play it.
If/when there -is- a market, it will get played.

Why can't you get that through your head?
