I have to come clean and admit, I love radio, indeed as our word get ever more multimedia rich, HD enhance and 3D spectactulastic, I find myself retreating to the world of radio and one concession to technology that of podcasts.

Along with this I like radios, I keep on acquiring them; today I gave my brother a DAB radio as a late present and I already miss it.  :(      :rolleyes:


So do you like radio ?

If so how and what sort of stations do you listen to ?

I prefer infrared.

Does Pandora count?

You decide.

I did like radio, but the only decent radio station in the area changed their format to adult contemporary.  I suppose I could look at satellite radio or something, but there's no point.

I love listening to reactionary AM talk radio such Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh.  :blush:

I use Pandora a lot as well.

I :wub: my satellite radio.  even now that I live in a land with actual radio signals, I'm still not giving it up.

Oops I seem to have bought a little radio from the Far East, it was only $8-9 and my finger accidentally pressed the mouse button when the cursor was hovering over the buy it now button.  :blush:

Love the Radio.  Though I mainly iPlayer or podcast things I'm interested in.

Love listening to radio biking to and from work, also listen a lot at home. I'm considering a Sonos Play 5 for the kitchen, mostly for the Internet Radio.

There are some radio programmes I like listening to on occasion...however only pre-recorded. I tend never to listen to live radio unless I'm driving or working somewhere or there's football on and I can't get a stream.
Generally no.
Which is weird as I often use the TV like a radio, not really paying attention to the images, just listening whilst I do something else.

I love my Sirius radio.

Yep, with a preference for AM.  We have three good AM sports radio stations here and a couple decent AM talk stations.  Wish I had an AM HD radio receiver in my car.  We have one good FM station and a couple so-so.  The rest are absolute crap.

Only listen to over the air radio in the car.  With iHeartRadio on my phone, PC, and now Xbox (as well as Pandora) I don't really miss Sirius.

podcast is the new radio. I'm not going to bother listening to "all hits all the time" bs. I miss Radio 4.

I like Ö1, which has classical music, news, documentaries and educational bits, plus the occasional radioplay.

I normally only listen to it over breakfast for news and classical music, though.

They're also commercial free which is a big plus.

I rarely listen to radio.

What else am  I going to do in my car?  It is not like I can post on Languish while driving.

Needs "it depends" answer. Can't be asked to switch it on at home, but I listen to whatever's on Radio 4 in my car and download comedy podcasts.

I like Talk Radio. I wish Satellite radio was cheaper, my commute isn't long enough to justify spending that much.

At work I listen to alot of podcasts.

I decided to check out again NDR1 - Welle Nord, the public regional radio for Schleswig-Holstein. Their format seems to have changed. They used to be all Schlager, all the time. Now they've moved to oldies (80s through 50s) and it's a lot more tolerable. And it's nice to hear news from the old country now and then.

Recently played:
The Beatles - All My Loving
Alan Parsons Project - Don't Answer Me
Soft Cell - Tainted Love
Starship - We Built This City
Monkees - Daydream believer
Brotherhood Of Man - Kiss me, kiss your baby

I feel old. :(

I listen to the public radio station, and the local university station, which plays roots music.  And the right-wing populist statewide FM network (I think they have nine stations now).

I'm not gay for radio, no.

Yeah, same here.  I generally prefer to listen to the radio in the car instead of CDs, because the CDs I can always listen to at home, but there's a chance that the radio will play somthing that I like but don't have otherwise.  Also, I do listen to ESPNradio a bit.

Seem like radio/podcasts have almost completely replaced tv for me now.   :hmm:
