    In the mornings we always have Absolute 80s or Absolute Classic Rock on.
    The Christian O'Connell Breakfast show as been my main way of finding interesting new music and also something entertaining during breakfast.

    When not listening to a CD in the car, we tend to put BBC Radio 2 on for Simon Mayo's show or Planet Rock.

    Around here it's 70% country, 20% Conservative talk radio and one rock station which plays a good song every once in a while (we used to have an '80's station but it's been long gone for a while). Pandora keeps me sane though.

    In my car, it's the only way to listen to music. I generally listen to 70's/80's rock, which is right up my alley.

    I listen to the radio in my mom's car, or sometimes on my iPod if there's any old school rock on.

    I only ever listen to the radio while mowing lawn (radio earmuffs) and I am listening to the radio I am generally listing to a pirate radio station near a college. 10 miles away or so. Ah the sound of no commercials and unedited green day while mowing he lawn. It's the only reason why I like mowing the lawn lol.

    I don't, but rarely. I listen to cds and music on my phone the majority of the time. When I do listen to the radio, though I listen to the 3 main Hip Hop, Rap & R&B stations. Hot 107.9 a Hip Hop/Rap station. V103.3 A R&B/Hip Hop station & 94.5 A Rap station where I get most of my rachet music fixes. lol.

    I do, but not a lot, mostly in the car driving around.

    The only station I really listen to is the rock one (has new and old), and that's where I find some new mainstream rock that I like. It gets old quick though, since they overplay the same songs and bands.

    No. Most music on the radio is commercial crap I can't bear listening to, so at home all I do is listen to stuff from my iTunes library or play some records, and I always have a USB-stick in my car with music I know I enjoy while driving.

    If I have to listen to radio it's always Studio Brussel (from Belgium), as they're pretty much the only radio station around here that plays some alternative music and is not internet only.

    No. The music I listen to isn't even on iTunes, or Japanese radio.

    Let alone American radio.

    Yep. Mostly Nova FM 96.9 and they play alot of new music out but I mostly enjoy their chats. Kate, Tim and Marty's segments are quite funny. :3
