Almost anything from the charts in the 80s. That was the time when I simply stopped listening to the radio. Thankfully, the Internet has proven to be fertile grounds for broadcasters that don't care so much about charts and mass appeal.

Listening to a radio is so 2003.

From the day I heard about last fm and then spotify I haven't turned a traditional radio on.

I don't think I've actually listened to the radio willingly since about 1993.

Ignorance really is bliss, sometimes.

As far as I'm concerned, Clear Channel is the worst thing that's happened to radio since the invention of television. Not only do stations tend to only keep 40 songs on rotation at any given time, the commercials have gotten louder and longer since they've gradually monopolized the market.

There's a local non-profit radio station that does modern rock and alternative here, and it's the only station within 200 miles that's worth listening to. Yeah, you have to put up with irritating fund drives twice a year, but it's absolutely worth it.

There's a reason so many people set their alarm clocks to play radio. Well, other than the fact that the default noise is made of heart attacks and nightmares.

Radio? And the music they are playing??
I don't even call that music.
One of the best inventions was the cd-player for cars.

There is only one radio here, that streams good old rock from the golden days, pretty much the only channel I heard when feeling in the radio while driving mood.

The other ones.. junk music for the brainless masses.

All of them.

This.
I'll never forget my junior year in high school when Nirvana hit opening the doors for all the "un-commercial" bands to become "commercial". I had to keep asking myself if I still liked Sonic Youth just because they were now charting. Very confusing times indeed.

I'm using Grooveshark .

This. I have a stack of CDs in my car, haven't listened to the radio once. I do keep the radio in my room tuned to talk radio, and use it as background noise to help me fall asleep.
