We have introduced a music service on campus, but it has not changed the
number of notices we receive at all.

FWIW, we do not have any of the commercial services, available for free,
on campus.  I did wonder, after seeing these stats, if we had noticed
any change.  I can't post our numbers, but, while they are lower than
these they have also been remarkably consistent over the last three
years.

Perhaps that's of value, as a point of comparison.
