Uhm .. actually so far they're finding the opposite is true. The poor, minorities are less likely to correctly use the PPM device because they're paranoid of being monitored by "the man".
Madison won't have PPM for a long while anyway(if ever) so it doesn't matter.
: I was an Arbitron shareholder for years and know about the PPM, and frankly I think they're on crack if they think anyone other than the very poor are going to hook something into their phone lines, walk around with a beeper on their belts all day long, then plug it in every night for data uploading...just for a couple of bucks. No one with any dignity will do it. The fashion-conscious hipsters that make up much of the modern rock audience sure as hell wouldn't be seen with that thing strapped to their side all day long for two weeks.
