I am gutted about this.  BBC Music Introducing it such a jewel in the BBC crown.  No one does it better than the BBC.  In my opinion the new show covers to many areas and it will lose that special personal edge.  My view is Introducing should remain local but be on for 60 mins weekly.  Then make it a podcast on BBC Sounds.  Even replay some of the shows in the early hours on BBC Radio 1.  Some of the biggest shows 16-24s catch up on on BBC Sounds is new music shows.  GIVE THEM A BETTER PLATFORM!  BBC Local should had over the money it spends on BBC Music Introducing and give it to another department at the BBC that will look after it.  How these guys in charge of BBC Local still have a job is unbelievable. Clearly suck ups who pine after Tim's job.  BBC Local need looking at but have some imagination and keep your strengths for goodness sake!
