20 million a year is the right number - plus other income. If u calculated the amount of money he's generated over the years for Infinity he's been a huge bargain. People don't understand the enormity of his success in morning radio, morning drive time radio in any city is worth millions, in LA and NYC we're talking probably close to a billion. Until Stern did it syndicated radio was just something used by stations to fill in programming late nights and weekends. The belief was that in morning and afternoon drive listeners would only listen to local talent. Howard went on in Philadelphia and went to #1, he was #1 in L.A. for years(has slipped alot), Boston, Vegas, Cleveland, Orlando, San Francisco and practically any market that would pay the huge licensing fee for his show.

His ratings at the peak of his career in the early 90's in New York City are epic, they will never be repeated and nobody will even come close. The world's richest media market and he dominated it as much as any entertainer has dominated anything.
