Older generations did listen to it a lot surly! Now the TV is primary...But I listen to radio all the time now..Always have it on in my car and at some occasions at home too..Its a really good medium that I think has been a little forgotten...Do you listen to radio ? What can you say about this topic ?

I listen to XM radio on tv. Either Squizz channel or Liquid Injection ( I think it is). They help me create some riffs and stuff on the guitar :lo:

I dont have a radio, but last time i checked there were nothing but the lastest chart-topping music playing anyway.

I stick with cd's and mp3s.. and finding new stuff i like on sites like last.fm

I actually hate the radio, they plays the same 15-20 songs for about 6 or 7 years now, and its gets old.

Plus, most of the music i like isnt on the radio unless you have satellite radio, which i dont

the only station i listen to where i live is the local alt-rock station. it's independantly owned and operated, no corporate crap. honestly, all the corporate stations consistantly play stuff like staind, nickelback, and hinder, along with the EXACT SAME other songs every day. i refuse to believe it's because people like them. nobody i know really does. it's just corporations trying to shove garbage down everyone's throat. the independant stations play a mix of ALL music, especially smaller bands / older hits that don't get enough attention.

I listen to xm satellite radio alot in the car. I drive a ton for my job so it keeps me company. You get a huge assortment music plus great talk radio to boot. I love it.

No, here in Spain almost all the radio music is really bad so I hate it !!!!!
You cannot listen any metal song in radio, all music is bad pop

Sometimes when driving to work and don't feel like listening to a CD, I'll surf the stations for some metal or oldies.

Quite often i listen to BBC international Radio 1 ( the breakfast show with Chris Moyles)

hes really funny IMO and all that bad music wakes me right up (i use my radio as an alarm)

I listen to the radio every morning on the way in to work, its just a breakfast show so more talking than music and its quite entertaining and cheers me up on the depressing journey to work, the journey home is metal all the way tho far too much rubbish on the radio at that time!

omg that sucks


I always listen to the radio in the car, it's nice to listen to the chart songs for change and when I listen to the metal channel it keeps me updated on what's new. But I especially like the talking inbetween songs.

Sometimes I prefer sports on the radio instead of the TV. It's just that with the tv I notice I'm not so engaged but just lazy glaring. Sports on the radio is more enthusiastic and serves you everything, times, positions etc on a silver plate. Perfect media!
