Radio in Australia sucks! Cant remember last time i put it on


Ha ha! :) My girlfriend's Aussie and she says the same thing! This is why even in the age of iPods and... I don't know, whatever technology us kids these days are supposed to be using, I still make mix tapes.

Dudes, we can set ourselves days worth of playlists until we're blue in the face, but what I like to do is set a limit of 90 mins on a playlist (because that's typically how long the tapes were that I used to make before all this radical digital nonsense). Makes you ask yourself about the music you listen too. Interrogate your tastes. The art of the mixtape must never die, my friends.

Otherwise, I Deezer a lot: www.deezer.com

At work I listen to burned CDs; in the car and at home I hook my iTouch to speakers. I rarely listen to radio; the DJ's on the commercial stations are too smarmy (especially the Morning Zoos and Morning Drive-Times), and I can't see paying for satellite when I can listen to music I like for free.

I've been using Pandora which will line up a list of songs relevant to an artist or song you specify. It's pretty good.

Commercial radio is horrible to me anymore, unless I live next to a low-watt college station (and I wish I still did). It seems like if you want decent and recent music on the radio, you have to SUBSCRIBE to it. If I have to do that, then why should I bother? I'm not that desperate, and I guess the record companies aren't bothered with wanting me to buy their current dreck.

FM radio wasn't always that way, even 15 years ago. Now FM seems to be only something to pass the time by while you're driving, and that's about IT.

I can not get myself to pay for satelite radio. I hate haveng to pay a hundred bucks a month for the cable tv. Now they are pushing in my neighborhood this new Fios were your PC and TV and phone are all on fiber optics. Sooner or later I will most likely have to pick either FIOS or Comcast as a package which would be all three ecept I think with FIOS you can include your cell phone in the deal. The only problem is that once you do all your services through one you are at there mercy price wise. It
starts out cheap but you no how that goes.

+1 I can put up with commercials and annoying DJ's but I don't listen to the radio enough to warrant paying to listen.

Radio is on all day in my studio/office. Listening to a station called The Ride, and all they play is the classics (The Who, Cream, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zep.... and so on). Never tire of those.

I forgot about Pandora. It's really cool how they configure everything.

I remember when I a teenager living in El Paso Texas we had a mexican station call Xroc80 that play rock albums in the evenings and rock singles during the day and early morning. Sometime in the late 70's or early 80's they outlawed the "X" stations major bummer. Now the same music we used to listen to is on Classic rock stations. Good thing is now I can listen on my computers to a local classic rock station where ever I go by signing onto thier web site.

They were the days when you drove down the road and pop in an 8 track then they come out with a thing called a cassette, and some of them were even in the radio you did'nt have to mount them under the dash. My guess is that there are a few on here who have never seen an 8 track . Remmber the dynamite 8 you could carry that had the plunger on top you used to change tracks.

I sometimes listen to radio on my cell phone but only when I'm bored.
I didn't even connect the antenna on my stereo at home, that's how much I listen to local radio stations...
In the car - told you local radios suck, tape doesn't work (old pioneer radio) :D

Internet radio - pretty cool, sometimes I listen to 1.fm My friend sent me the URL once, good enough for me.
