That's the only way to go. If you listen to radio you gotta have satellite.

I listen to sports talk radio and sometimes the local cIassic rock station. None of the stations that play new music play anything I would listen to (I mostly like power metal, prog metal, operatic metal, folk metal, and all the various cIassic rock genres).

I still use CD, haha I know. I listen to albums, which I only buy if I really enjoy the artist. I use CDs because it's safer than playing with my phone while driving, and doesn't suck up my already shity phone battery life.

I'm the same exact way about actual music except my phone has good battery life. I have my podcasts on my phone, but all of my music comes from CDs, and all of those CDs are albums bought only because I like the artist.

Usually I just listen to CDs in my car, but when I get tired of them I'll usually flip on a classic rock station or a pop station (whichever one currently isn't playing Maroon 5). And sometimes I'll listen to talk radio if Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh are on. They're very entertaining.

On local radio, just CBC Radio One and the local AM news station (for traffic and weather updates). I've come to much prefer satellite radio. Sirius XM is an outstanding service. Channels I listen to on a regular basis: 40: Liquid Metal (heavy to extreme metal/hardcore/etc) 67: Real Jazz (jazz classics, old and new) 70: BB King's Bluesville (blues, blues, blues) 76: Symphony Hall (classical) 82: Radio Classics (old time radio dramas, Johnny Dollar FTW!) 100: Howard 100 (Howard Stern) 102: Radio Sex (only for Ginger and Christy) 128: Road Dog Trucking (Trucking talk and news) 169: CBC Radio One (when I'm out of range of their Winnipeg broadcast)

While others can be bad, there's a station here that plays pretty good music, and think you'd like their Sunday morning show: Resurrection Sunday, full of classic alternative. 965thebuzz.com

When in car I usually listen to local rock stations, unless my dad puts one of his 80's dance music CDs. Gotta love the 80's. :)

I used to listen to the radio a lot. But I recently purchased a new vehicle and it syncs with my phone via bluetooth so I basically always just listen to the music on my phone.

I have the radio tuned to talk radio most of the day. Sports or Coast to Coast late night. Sometimes pop or classic rock stations.

I listen to sports radio shows. In LA we have Fox Sports Radio and ESPN. My favorite show is the Petros and Money Show on AM 570 Fox Sports.

Not really. I used to listen to it often, mostly alternative rock and R & B stations, but I started listening to the music on my compute a lot more lately....

I rarely listen to the radio but I always listen to some talk show. Don't really care what it's about, just as long as it's interesting.

There isn't much left in the Boston area. 92.5 The River, and 92.9 are "alternative" stations, but it's mostly just bad alt rock. How many times am I going to hear Siamese Dream for god sake?

I honestly just listen to top 40 now. I'd rather listen to "Roar" 3 times an hour instead of the slow-jam junk on the other stations. 

It's tough for me, I want like new wave/indie/revival music, but it's hard to find stations that spin that stuff all day long.

Don't listen to the radio, I usually just play my own sh*t when I'm driving.

But on GTA V, I like Vinewood Boulevard, Non Stop Pop, and West Coast Classics the best.

You'd be surprised. In comparison to the crappy alternative station we have here- top 40 is better. And I really like Katy Perry. I would love to say I listen to alt/rock stations, but there are no good ones here anymore.

My 2006 daily driver has radio and CD player only. It does play mp3 on CD-R or CD-RW. So, I just drag n drop a bunch of mp3 tunes on the disc and finalize it.

I do, but it's the classic rock station at work in the office, only because the one lady I sit next to likes to listen to it in the background. Sure, I could go for a change every once in awhile, but then again, its not like the top 20 station, so its not terrible either I guess. Other than that, a little bit. I listen to the local college station and independent npr station in the car. Other than that, not a ton.

Mostly tech podcasts for me these days. I'll listen to the local classic rock station for the drive into work, but it's a short drive :P
