Your radio stations.

The topic says it all.

My radio stations include:

Hit Music
Modern Music
Sportstalk
Newsradio

These are basically the radio stations I listen to. Newsradio is primarily to wake me up in the morning because the announcer always tells the time in 2 minute intervals...so during summer, I never listen to it. Sportstalk is okay if I really hate the music on WYHT(Hit Music) or Z104(Modern music).

The biggest problem with Hit Music stations is that they play the same songs over and over. They're replayed often within the next hour because of lack of variety. Seldom does new music ever come out. And the Top 10 lists are always the same every week, they gradually change so it's no use listening to Top 10's on hit music stations. So yeah...discuss.

I don't like the radio. They seldom play stuff I like listening to. When I do listen, it's either an '80s station, a classic rock station, or a modern rock station.

No radio stations here. :(

I listen to Hauraki FM, which plays hits from the 70's, 80's, 90's and today (or something..)
And the Rock which I thought only played rock music until I heard Slim Shady sparking it up on there so I got confused.

But my radio in my car is broken and barely plays anything at all ;_;

XM satellite radio, man. There's a station dedicated to every reasonable genre and decade there is.

Sports Radio, News Radio, Talk Radio, National Public Radio

I have six stations set and they all fall under those catagories.

When in Scotland: Real Radio
When in New Zealand: MoreFM, The Rock, Classic Hits. At least those are the ones I remember. There was 91FM but I can't remember what happened to that one. Oh, and Radio Sport.

EDIT: Kishi inspired me. 91FM was 91ZM.

I wonder how many stations in NZ have changed now, seeing as they change names once every few years or so. MoreFM won't have, though, and that makes me happy. Brent & Lance = Gods. Kim & Corbett aren't too bad either.

I tend to listen to XFM until late at night, when they start playing more unusual (crap) records. That's pretty much the only station in London that you can rely on to play good music, so that's all I listen to. If there's nothing good on then I'll play a CD for a bit.

I don't listen to radio.
The only radio show I've listened to without being forced by anyone is http://www.radio-goethe.de/.

107.7: The Bone
92 KSJO
KNBR 680 Sports Radio

Nothing but the Bay Area's best.

Radio 1
X-fm
Talksport

does ricky gervais still go on xfm?

92.9 and Nova 93.7 and sometimes the Mandurah radio station 97.3

But I listen to 92.9 the most.

90.9 CJSW (University station)
102.1 CBC Radio 2 (CBC radio)

Yeah, he's still on. It's a pretty good show, too.

99.1 WHFS (Rock station) I usually listen to this most of the time, especially in the morning. <3 Sports Junkies
106.7 WJFK (Talk station) I don't usual listen, but they often have some shows I like listening to, especially the sports station in the late afternoon.
107.7 WTOP (News station) News all the time, I usually wake up to this.

Often times, I'll listen to classic rock, the modern hits, and those rap stations. *nod*

tHen there's the Classical music station, and the smooth jazz station. Those are also good to listen to.

The radio dial in my car has up to eighteen presets (twelve FM, six AM). I have about nine set, as follows: Modern Rock, Pop stuff, Country, Classic Rock, the crazy station that plays everything in the universe and NPR, more modern rock, more country, R&B stuff, and classical. The reason they go in this order is because they come one after another on the radio dial. Because I'm neurotic.

107.02 FM - Cidade FM The guys over there are nut... :D

The radio sucks. "good" music is not popular music, and therefore will never be played on the radio.

I'll second that. Some of the crap that passes as good music on the radio these days really makes me wonder how much worse it can get. And not to mention the endless onslaught of commercials.

My solution, MP3 Player. :D
