Any chance of reducing the amount of U2, Pearl Jam, and Radiohead songs being played on Radio Paradise?

Especially on the Rocking Mix channel they are too prominent. Every time I switch to that channel, one of the first five songs being played will be one by U2, Pearl Jam, and Radiohead. I already downrated every song as it came along, but that's no longer of any influence, I presume. It was used for the "Play something I like" in the legacy player, right?

Reason: I'm trying to boycott them until they pay their taxes, like anyone else, instead of evading them by using some tax evasion scheme made possible by Dutch law. Bono is a total hypocrite, if you ask me, posing as the savior of the world, asking others to give generously, but not paying his due share.

One of the way that modern pretend-to-be sophisticated musicophiles, like me,  market their brand is by stating out loud and often that they love ABBA, U2 , Coldplay and a bunch of other popular, successful bands that fussy music snobs like to criticize.  

This is very serious 'us versus them' stuff, though hopefully nobody gets aerial bombed, knifed or shot because, hopefully, at some point all of us realize how incredibly blessed we all are to have this vast array of never-ending choices.

Boycotts tend to focus on not buying stuff, which isn't all that hard with Used-to-be-good 2...
